I made 100 today. I've missed 2 days, and have gotten a second run in on 7 days. Last year I did about 75 runs, and the year before in the 50s. Here are some stats from this year
Avg time per run - 36min 37sec
Avg distance per run 3.73 miles
Avg time per mile 9:49
So wile I might not fit in the "purist" definition or not, or whatever that is, I sure think my stats are NOTHING special, nor am I. this was about a personal challenge, and everyone on that list gave something to look at and compare against. Whether they did 200 runs or single digit runs, they each have a story and their own challenges. This is about consistency, a challenge, and supporting each other. I'm sure there are some amazing stories of people overcoming their challenges, and someone else's challenge may be nothing to me and my challenge might be nothing to others. I do feel like my running form is improved, my heart rate is lower for the same pace. I have had some nagging issues, but worked through them.
Thanks to Dev/Slowman and all or Slowtwitch for keeping this challenge going! Now I'm going to go display my Gold medal for all the world to see .... oh wait, its just a Gold medal Icon on a list of 724 people, oh well, I'm enjoying knowing its there!
