3,000 miles

For the first time, I’ve surpassed 3,000 miles in a calendar year.   I didn’t have this as a goal, but my late fall training just propelled me to it.   My previous personal record was 2,600 miles, in 2008.  I still have Across The Years 24-hour run on Dec 30th, so I may hit 400 miles for the month, which would be my all-time high mile month. Since I started logging miles in 2004, I’ve “run” nearly 12,000 miles.

This year I have also logged the number of feet that I have climbed.   I’ve climbed 432,000 feet, which is over 81 miles straight up.  That would get me up into the Mesophere layer of the atmosphere.  Still not high enough to see a sattelite.

Here is a chart showing my mileages for the past five years.
