2000. That’s the magic number of miles I think that I’m capable of hitting each year. I haven’t done it yet, but I do think it’s appropriate. I think it’s the number that I should be hitting pretty easily. Why? I’m not sure. Is it the roundness of the number? Is it maybe that the year 2000 was such a big event?

What with Y2K. All the fear that came with celebrating the year 2000. We had Conan O’Brien doing skits about the year 2000 from about the time his show began. We had all that debate about whether the year 2000 was actually the beginning of the 21st century.

Of course, all of that makes a huge difference in the mind of someone from Generation X. Maybe that’s why I am fixated on breaching that number of miles. I don’t know, but I don’t think it should be as difficult and as elusive as it has proved to be.

Will I get there this year? I don’t know…but I will try.
