Jackie Fairweather has now completed 100,000 km of running. (Hope I have the correct number of 0's.

View facebook to see the completion of that distance.

There have been numerous postings on ACT Run recently of how far each poster has run.

See the below from Jason McCrae.

I recall a year or so ago former Canberran Blair Trewin ran his 100,000km. Blair has kept meticulous training diaries throughout his running/orienteering career and I suspect he would have started running at the XCs in the early 80s also (he was born in 71).
I recall he was 'racing' his car to 100,000k and just beat it, running his entire 100,000th k with his arms held aloft (even though he was by himself).
Blair also went some ridiculous number of days without missing a days running - it was something like 4 years
