I can see that would be far more effective than "get in better shape." How many km can you run in a day now? Have you charted out a weekly KM plan you'll need to reach in order to make it all the way to 2008km? Hi Geoff,

Yes, 2008km is indeed measurable. I can see that would be far more effective than “get in better shape.”

How many km can you run in a day now?

Have you charted out a weekly KM plan you’ll need to reach in order to make it all the way to 2008km?

Last year it was "to get in better shape", but this year I picked a much more specific and measurable goal. I can tell at any point whether I'm on track or falling behind. I'm tracking it with Nike+ and Runner+, which lets me stay on top of my goals, and acts as a motivator through the support community and running friends. For the rest of my goals, I have put all the daily actions I need to do into Joe's Goals, and I created a Timemap (from lifehacker) so that I allot sufficient time to complete each action.
