Furthest below: all kilometres recorded either training or at events. Right now more than 10,000 km (edit: number of km not kept up to date for a few years). Could this be the goal?!

UNOFFICIAL TRAINING SESSIONS RECORDED IN DIARY
Unfortunately, before 2012 I only kept a marching training diary in 2007. I have assessed what training I have done in the years not covered by actual diaries. This is an absolute minimum assessment, since I don't want to "cheat". 1,650 km of training in 13 years ... well, at least no one should be able to accuse me of exaggerating!

As per 03 FEB 2013:

1998-2006: 320 km
2007: 500 km
2008-2011: 1,330 km
2012: 1,536 km
Training total before 2013: 3,686 km
+
Official events total before 2013: 6,223 km =

Recorded in all pr. 2012: 9,909 km (not updated since)

Diaries: 1998-2006 and 2008-201120072012, 2013.
