A day early as I will be away tomorrow and will therefore not be running or cycling...

I keep no records of how far my cars travel in a month but Strava keeps an eye on my running and cycling distances...

A big run month... Running an ultra marathon helped. Will be running an even longer one in March.

And currently leading the monthly club running distance challenge :)

An average one on the bike...

Assuming "count" logs how many times you've pulled that handle, what's the figure logged for that?

I suppose question is how many "pulls per mile" are you achieving? :)

Its actually Kilometers and I row one a day which requires 167/8 pulls a day!! The resistance setting is on the midway point and its enough to get me breathing hard and getting a moist brow!! Enough for me, I see the regularity as the most important thing so I do it every morning as soon as I get up and before my morning ablutions!! :-D

As my ownership of the C4 is going to expire soon, the insurance expires tomorrow, I will not be able to do the next 700 miles which would give a truly special mileage reading but I did manage to capture this while sitting having my lunch during yesterday's Ratmobile Rescue. :-D :

I think a bit of determination (and only just over a tank full of diesel) could get that extra 700 miles knocked off overnight, no? :rofl2:

By eck, if you reset the trip at last fill up that's also pretty remarkable. Are all your journeys down hill!? :-D

I reset at the last fill up but we topped it off with 20 litres on the Ratmobile Rescue trip and I didn't reset then!! :-D

Oh that's nice, weirdly ** by chance the first three cars I owned were all bought with 98 thousand miles on the clock, so I had three lots of that (missed the event on at least one of them)

**
Spoiler: show
even more weirdly, the first two were bought from two (different folks) called Keith!
Spoiler: show
bonus weirdness, the second Keith was called Keith Floyd, but he wasn't the famous chef chap!
