Having done the c25k last year and followed it on through the year to complete several 10k runs, I needed another target to focus on to carry my momentum into 2021. I set my eyes on achieving a 500 mile annual run goal for the year. Running with a group from a nearby town last night, saw my 2021 total hit 502 miles. Accomplished eight weeks ahead of schedule. For someone in his mid 60's who only started running in his 60's, I feel it has been a great achievement. 2022? Well I've already been accepted for the Manchester half marathon in May. I'll also try to gain entry to the great north run later the same year. It's having a goal that drives me on.

Well done to you and your Ribble Valley pals.

I'm wondering if I'll hit 1000 miles this year.

I'm not entered in any further races... yet.

Is it the Great Manchester Run (15 May 2022) that you've entered?

Well done on achieving your goal 8 weeks early! That’s brilliant. I know what you mean about having a goal, I entered the Great South Run next year so that’s something to aim for. Love the photo 😁👍⭐️.
