    I was digging the thought, but when I looked at my training schedule for my half marathon at the end of Sept, I'm only going to hit the mid 70s for mileage. And, I'm pretty religious about following my schedule. I only run 3-4 days a week and cross train on lunch 5 days. Good luck! 100 miles aren't easy! You all will be bustin' some tail!

    Motivation is great and all, but attempting a 100 miles/month if you don't have a few years of running experience is really not the brightest idea... That's a marathon per week.

    To give a generic example, every serious running source will advise to never up mileage by more than 10% each week, and even to drop back a few miles every 2-3 weeks to allow building a solid base injury free

    Motivation is great, but don't kill yourselves people :)
