ah, lol and got you
I was using my miles left to run as the year I got the interesting fact from otherwise it's just boring history
Am guessing lots of people will keep an eye on a motorway pub and just hope there isn't a spike in DD cases.
Yeah you got me good and proper
But the problem with the "miles left" thing is that it probably won't be long before it gets tricky to pick interesting facts out of the air, or even off Google... Who'd know for sure what really happened on, just for example, July 1st 1007? 
Evening all!
Re-calculated and currently on 74k, day 21.
mostly just 20min runs so far, horrid at 6am, enjoyed a nice 9k in the sunshine on Sat. some good distances rolling in here! Keep it up.
97.875m close!
21mi / 1252mi
3mile run today
End of week 3: 1895 to go, in ks.
Funnily enough on this very day (21st Jan 1895 that is) the National Trust, or its forerunner, was founded.
Less ks this week, slightly, yet it has been a harder week's training with some muddy off road work: nevertheless I think I am on track for the 2014, and indeed for continuing to run on a daily basis. Too early to call it a streak!
21 days and 119k completed.
I did 2013K in 2013 so going for 2014K in 2014 as I was happy that last years mileage got me out regularly and improved my times at all distances without going over the top.
Actually had a very high mileage start to the year as I'm training for VLM (2nd marathon but other one was in 2010). After Day 21 I'm on 154k - so well ahead at the moment but it'll definitely calm down post marathon.
I blame this on P&D but now at 163.1km around 102 miles
I think I might get up to 200 km this month if so that would be a tenth if the way there already 
111k so far
loaded with a head cold so taking it a bit easier this week, great mileage guys.
Anyone else getting fed up wearing a head torch yet?
Nope but I need new batteries
179.3 km
5 miles done today, up to 26miles ~ 42km
Only worn it once this year! am a wuss and been on the treadmill
jinty, hope the cold clears soonest!
booktrunk, good going! I started off slowly in 2013 and already into my May 2013 mileage
Welcome legend and good luck for VLM. I have a half and 2 marathons this year so need to bank some miles as I'll have plenty of tapering and recover time to consider too.
Good going alehouse and never to early to call it a streak
Keep it up mikasa
Booktrunk, well over the 100km's now then?
NiceIronDad, you'd be surprised how those short runs add up to big numbers
XX1, yup, the 'news' might get limited as we all progress but plenty of time to think of an alternative
lol, just as you thought XX1, nothing much happened today in 1820 but earlier in the month the Royal Astronomical Society founded in England.
Morning all
Well since I was struck down with this cold, I've only managed 2 more runs. Still coughing whenever I stop running, which is a bit annoying (does this mean the solution is to not stop running...?). There's also snow here now, so that's putting me off going outside.
Think I'm up to about 82 km though. Not sure exactly as I haven't uploaded my runs from the last 2 weeks yet.
There's some great progress going on here, hoping to get back on track soon.
Will post my actual mileage (kilomerage?) later once I've uploaded everything
I know my mileage is nothing compared to you guys but this January I've already run 10 miles more than in any other January and I've not finished yet!
Mikasa brilliant work on upping your milage.
Emzap I know how you feel, im still loaded up with the cold and also feel a bit bitter whilst Im running.
Total so far 118k
Weekly check in, 46 miles for the week (162 for the year)
1852 miles to go!
History - erm, nothing... (But is anyone hoping they get down to zero on the 25 December....?)
Cbw - that'd be great!
Jinty - hope you're feeling better
202km 1812 to go
ohhh, nice bit of Tchaikovsky I hear in the background.
End of week 4... 148.69 km completed... 1865.31 km to go... There are some great distances being posted here... I'm starting to find it a bit relentless already...
I couldn't come up with any interesting facts for this day in 1865... But it's always quite in January; that post-Christmas lull... I'm sure things will pick up in February...
Evening all !
Training plans slightly disrupted by yet another power cut last night, so the threat of no shower before going out this morning meant an evening run, but dry and lovely (head torch....)
So day 26/365, 99.7Km. Worst day was definitely d24 - felt truly grot and would have skipped were it not for the 365.
Is Spring coming?
Well done peeps
A mixed week for me and my 'streak' ended after 34 days
End of week four (or 26/365) and a cutback week of 41.4 miles sees my total at 200.20 miles and (still) 1814 miles to go but ahead of target
Just seen this thread and its grabbed my interest 2014km is now my target for this year .....need to up the mileage though as only ran 80km this month so far still doable though
. As for the rest of you already doing it keep going some cracking efforts so far!
Another 3.1 miles done, total 46.8km.
Missed weekend's long run.
1 mile (1.65km) as a gym warm up, still counts doesn't it?
Total 48.45km
Mikasa, all miles/kilometres count in my book
An easy 6 miles today on the back of my first ever sub 60 minute 10k on Monday
1799 miles to go!
Nottoday but on Jan 9th 1799 British Prime Minister William Pitt introduces income tax to raise funds for the war against Napoleon.
Ran 214.9km in total (not just tonight. That was another 13km)
So 1799.1 to go
possibly the most i've done in a month
Craig -- welcome to the party... This thread has already motivated me to beat my previous highest monthly total and there's still a couple of days to go...
Mikasa -- warm up in the gym, running to catch a bus, getting chased by wolves... Yep, they all count
221.6
1792.4 to go.
Ditto!
Well 1792.27 to go
