Fun ways/ideas on counting runs/miles?

There’s a very popular “run the year” program (it’s a whole thing with medals and Facebook groups and what not). The idea being that you and/or your team will log a total of 2020 (this year) miles.

There are offshoots with virtual run/race programs for km or 1000 or self-set goals.

My work one year had a walk across the country or something where it would map out how far you had gotten and give you little tourist/historical tidbits of what you had passed on the way. Perhaps there’s something similar in cyberspace now?

Race Your Pace you set your own goal each month and get a different medal every month you enter and one for the year if you do all 12 months. UK based and they ship to US for $5 but it can take a few weeks sometimes.

You can choose run, walk , swim and/or bike.

I log on Runningahead and have a goal bunny for both walking and running. My goals are 1000 miles walking and 2000 miles running. Every day I log, the summary page will tell me how many miles I've done toward my goal, how many miles per week that was, how many miles I have to go and how many miles a week I need to do to reach my goal. It will also tell me how many miles I've done in the past 7 days and in the past 30 days, which can be fun. The pace bunny shows green if I'm on track and pink if I'm falling behind.

fun way to pass the miles....i run at the beat of the music and have all different types of music from folk-simon and garfunkel to rap. makes track miles a little more interesting
