    We are now onto year 13, and surely it has to be a lucky number and we can properly get back to a full year of racing again. The thread from an initially hopeful 2021 can be found here. This year will be better, right?


    The new 2022 version of the Google Docs spreadsheet can be found here:


    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HNEj1SUBgO3WPVCqvl98G8bjlpfjIwRa9P2mVxBBrjc/edit?usp=sharing


    Same as previous years we are using Google Docs again, just click on the link above and enter your boardsie name in column A and then how far your total miles are for the year in column C, or if you count in kilometers enter that in column D. If you want you can also enter you age/ gender category in column B and don't forget to update that if you've passed a significant date as I just copied and pasted from the previous years spreadsheet. Your ranking amongst the boardsies is shown on the Positions sheet.


    Do not edit any other columns, except for the completion date when you have done your 1000miles. I have manually added the people who had edit access to the locked tab again for this year, and if there is anyone else who wants access to that then you'll need to PM me your Google email address so that I can enable access.


    As always, there will be somewhere that I have messed up with the calculations with the number of days in the year or having the wrong year in one of the lines. I tried to find them all, but let me know if you spot an error and I'll get it fixed.

    Thanks for doing this.

    Any chance we could clear out the 142 names in the Enter Total Here tab and start afresh? Most of the names are no longer posting and it just clutters everything up.

    Thanks for doing this again, after a good day's running (parkrun and a race_ I've taken what will no doubt be an extremely short lived lead!

    I'll tidy the list up in a day or so when I get back in front of a laptop.

    I've cleared out a bunch of names of people who hadn't updated already. Don't anyone be offended if I've deleted you though, just ad yourself back in run. :)

    Looks like only the first 21 or so names are transferring over to the Positions sheet...

    Struggled last year and barely breached the 1,000 km mark. Hopefully my tendons hold up better in 2022

    No idea how that error crept in as haven't needed to mess with the lines responsible for that for several years... Anyway, should all be good now.

    Rounded up to the number of the beast today. Manchester in a couple of weeks so I expect my barnstorming start to the year will drop off pretty soon

    Apologies for only updating now. I thought I'd already entered some miles but haven't checked in over a month.

    Anyway, I should hit the 100 mark tomorrow. That's actually a touch later than previous years, but it's all good.

    1k done, on track for 10 consecutive 3ks.

    @robinph noticed that the year-end estimate formula is times 366

    Finally passed 1000 miles today. A whole 3 weeks later than last year.

    Marathon training was sensible enough from January to end of April - I didnt force the mileage and stuck to the plan closely, probably could have managed a higher peak mileage on the plan. The downtime post marathon also slowed things a little when compared to last year.

    Went through a 1,000 during Marlay parkrun this morning, no better way to do it. Possibly the quickest I've ever achieved the mark. Now for 2,000!

    1,000th mile today at Abbotstown just before the Sanctuary Run event. Three days later than last year.

    Passed the 1,000 mile mark today for the first time ever in a calendar year. Hopefully stay injury/illness free for the remainder of the year to get to the 2,000 mile mark.

    Passed my 1000 miles today. At the start of the year I had it as a yearly goal but ended up running a bit more than I’d initially planned.

    Tipped over the 1,000 today a little earlier than I usually do. Normally I'm scaping in sometime in December 😄

    Nice to get in a bit of consistent running with no show-stopping injuries (so far anyway, touch wood!)

    Mileage for the year so far:

    Jan 66 | Feb 106 | Mar 187 | Apr 156 | May 77 | Jun 63 | July 98 | Aug 188 | Sep 60

    2,006 miles today, a little behind the 3k curve, but an injury-free Autumn would mean it's achievable at less than 9 miles per day for 10 in a row.

    Ticked over the 1000 mile mark this week. Most I've ever done in a year, and that includes losing ~10 weeks of training. Should hit 2000 km hopefully by the end of the year.

    Just ticked over 1000 during yesterday's parkrun. Well behind usual, but still ticking over.

    Passed 1000 miles yesterday, during the obligatory Dun Laoghaire to Howth run training for Dublin, it's my 4th year in a row, but won't hit 1500 which I've managed the last 2 years.

    Passed 1000 miles for the year last Friday, 30 days earlier than last year so that's some progress. Was on course to do it around 3 weeks ago but best laid plans and all that!

    Ticked over the 2000 km mark last night, will probably finish up the year around 2500 km which would be more than double any previous year.
