I PB'd in all distanced entered
Same here, all within the first 4 months of the year! But then I only ran a couple of park runs, 2 HMs, and 1 marathon (which was my first and only - so far). Then after London everything fell off a cliff!
The New Forest jaunt looks like it could be good, is that the one you did last year? Good excuse for a weekend away!

Yep, the planned 18mi turned into more like 19miles due to Jason's maprunning skills. You get a lunch and desert at the end too. We could always pick you up from the stn en-route if you can't get a whole weekend away. Or it's a 6mi bike ride from Brockenhurst.

Hah, sounds like my year.
Followed a training plan for London, did a sub 19 5k, sub 1:30 HM, 3:15 for London, very pleased with that lot. Then since London I've been a bit lazy and haven't done anything structured. Ho hum. Need to get something in the calendar to focus on otherwise I just amble along.

2016 went well for me. I PB'd in all distanced entered, the largest being my 10mile time coming down by over 5mins. Moving further away from work and so run-commuting 3-4 days of the week has helped my running considerably.
Although the training up to my first marathon in Spring didn't go exactly to plan, I enjoyed the event and my 'performance' means I can easily PB in 2017.
2015 mileage - 670mi
I hope to end 2016 on 1200mi
2017 2000mi+
In 2017 I'll be moving from my Tri club to a dedicated running club, so hope to get in more structured training with the club. I'd also like to finish in the top 10 within the club for the Dorset Road Race League. The new club won the overall league, so there's quite a bit of competition, but it's also about consistency.
I also need to finally crack that 40min 10k barrier - Got within 15seconds in November. I'll probably enter the (apparently fast) Chichester 10k that @PhilPub recommended.
I think another couple of minutes off my HM time is possible - as @dbr mentioned upthread about 'ruining' yourself - I need properly learn how to do this as I know that I race too conservatively. I've got an 18mi off-road jaunt with @_Leon in early March (@Arducius interested?) that will serve as good training for the Reading Half.
Oh and juggle this around training for a sub-22min 10mi TT and bettering my 25mi time...
