This one is for all you runners out there! I was curious how long you have been running, and how many miles you put in per week, and ! AAAAAND GO!

I'm a beginner, and have been running only since the end of august and I put in between 15 and 20 miles per week. :)

    I've been running (off and on) for almost 12 years, and usually did 15-20 miles a week (before my injury this summer). LORDY, keep it up, girl. I don't think I'd call that distance "beginner."

    Thank you! Im so flattered. Maybe since I've only been running for 2 months, i consider myself a beginner! I dunno what is considered beginner, intermediate, or advanced with running haha!

    I began running in May, graduated from C25K at the end of July, and average around 18 miles a week. Most ever was 24 miles.

    I used to run 3 miles every day but I stopped about 10 years ago. I started running again in June and I'm up to 5-6 miles per day 5-6 days per week. So 25-36 miles per week, depending on my schedule.

    I have been running since last fall (Sept/Oct 2010). I usually run 15-20 miles per week, but I also try to add some cross-training days such as the elliptical or 30DS.

    45 - 50 miles per week is pretty normal for me. When the kids are out of school I (and I have a little extra time in the mornings) I tend to run ~ 60 or so per week.

    20-25 in an average week & no race to train for. Up to 40 when in training. As little as 10 right now since I only get about 2 days a week if that to run.

    On average? Not a lot - like 7.3 per week. Since I do HIIT, I go more by time/intensity rather than distance.

    And it sure shows, sexy!

    I myself get in 15-20, mostly on the treadmill. I am not built like a runner though, so that is probably the max for me..

    I've only been running since the end of July, and I only run three days a week (do circuit training three days and rest one), and I'm super slow, so I probably average 2-3 miles per day, so 6-9 per week. You are definitely not the same category of beginner as me! LOL

    Now I'm in marathon training, this week is about 40 miles, peak will be about 60. Normally with no event to train for it would be 25 ish miles max + cross training.

    Running again since Jan 2010, but did a lot of running in the dim distant past.

    I've been running off and on for 10 years and I have been averaging 10-15 miles a week lately depending on how much time the twins let me have.

    I've been running for a little over 8 years and I average anywhere from 20-30+ miles per week, depending on what I'm training for. The mileage goes up when it's for a marathon but went down a bit during the summer because I was doing triathlons and much more cross training.
  • I started getting serious about running in July, and i currently run 18-20 miles a week. Trying to reach 20-25 a week by the end of November but I'm still a beginner so I have to really push this next month. :)

    About four years, minus a year due to pregnancy/new baby. But for 2011, I'd say anywhere from 15-25, 3-4 days a week. Just depends on how I am feeling and what my weekend plans are. I also bike 10-20 miles a week and do various JM videos. And walk.
