Million Meter Challenge

Sounds awesome. Your orientation toward daily training vs racing is something that I seem to be leaning towards too. At least with triathlon. Going to see how this 70.3 Weymouth 17/9 goes and then reassess. Running events are pretty enjoyable though for the communal aspect. Triathlon doesn't provide as many opportunities for chat since you're swimming, and then can't draft on the bike. I did have some fun competing against others on the run leg of triathlon last summer though. Anyway, the daily training is definitely great. Cool to create goals and challenges like this rather than a race!

I used the wrong adjective by saying easily…physically maybe, but mentally I wasn’t so sure. The thought of doing 10 km’s day was the hard part and not knowing the wear and tear on the body was/is a limiting factor.
I set the challenge outside of my comfort zone and put a sub challenge (shorter than the 100 days) in it by trying to complete it by my 50th. 390 km’s in less than a month scares me and I don’t know if I can do it.
Just taking a day at a time….

throw in a couple days a week doing morning and evening sessions? allows you to do more in one day than you could do in one session as there's time for recovery in between.
