I don't "plan" to run XXX miles each year or month; I just go with what's on my training plan(s). I have had a lot of upper 900's years, but they have never been disappointing.

Probably should've been some runfessions over that.<br /><br />I once wanted to register for a race while on vacation, thought I had it all set up, but then just couldn't get it to accept a password when I tried to register. Back at our hotel room it worked just fine. I still got a low rate, but not as low as Darlene (who didn't even run the race, but was just lured in by the potential for a low entry fee).<br /><br />Don't really pay attention to yearly mileage, usually I try to tally it up, but I have to manually add in the mill miles usually. Couldn't begin to tell you where I am.
