Running was something of an x factor so figured I'd keep track for a year.<br /><br />Olga - couldn't agree more.<br /><br />Tony - I raced 420 odd miles last year. The 3,450 mileage total is all miles, so approx 12% of my mileage was racing. Seems like a lot now I think about it.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07768257304687597320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241238297532213032.post-38519291406417916012010-01-21T15:54:17.969-08:002010-01-21T15:54:17.969-08:00Nick - just curious.

While per mile the number is not so bad, it is still scary when looked at at the end of the year...you know, thinking of the family finances and such. But, we do what we can, otherwise, why live if not enjoy it?Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00493291972954387932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241238297532213032.post-51869588388262055512010-01-07T18:58:04.195-08:002010-01-07T18:58:04.195-08:00I love it!
