227.5 Miles

I suppose some folks can do that all at once, but for me that happens to be the average between the total "on foot" and total "on wheels" miles this year. Normally I'd never bother to look for such an average but right now, it happened to be obvious.

You see, my total running miles are 227.4 on the year. The total "wheeling" (biking and skating combined) miles are at 227.6 total. Yes it's a bit nerdy to be fascinated by this, but still, what are the odds?

Sadly, at this point last year I had run 715 miles... Injuries suck. On the bright side, though, I cycled only 229 miles for all of 2007 and from 1976-2007 I had inline skated zero miles. :)

Speaking of numbers and geekiness, about a month ago I was driving home from work and noticed that my car's odometer was at 73073 miles, and the temperature (displayed right below the odo) was 73 degrees! Earlier this week it was 74 degrees and guess what, the car's odometer read 74444.

Yep, I'm one of those people that can't help but to notice idiosyncrasies like that.
