    I have a hypothetical question.
    Say you were offered a sizable lump sum for running. You have to complete 365 miles.
    There is several ways you are allowed to accomplish this.
    Option 1: run 1 mile a day everyday for a year. No skipping or substitutes.
    Option 2: run 4 miles a day eveyday for 3 months. No skipping or substitutes during the running period.
    Option 3: a mixture of option 1 and 2.ex: run for a year, run two times for 3 months
    Your time limit is two years. Every time you run again you double your money. If you fail or change your mind during a running period you lose the chance at any money.

    Option 1 sounds doable.

    It's been forever since I've run timed miles, now that I think about it.

    Option 1 seems to be the easiest, if I just started doing option 2 all of a sudden I doubt my body could handle it aha because currently I'm not running at all, except for occasionally when I play with my dog

    Idk man, seems option 4 for me. Why does it have to be running? Exercise is like going over to the dark side or smthg for me. I doubt if I would be able to do it, unless my life depended on it. :blobflag: :blobnobully:

    Seems like free money to me... Unless that's on top of what I already do.

    One american mile (1,6 km) or one 'standard' (or whatever it's called, imperial measurements maybe) (10 km).

    Also, actually running or just walking or jogging would do as well?

    The milage is the key here. You have to complete the 1 mile a day or 4 miles a day in one go. Does not matter how long each day it takes you. Walking does not count.

    Would go with option 2 or 3 as it would limit the possibility to fail due to sickness or something else ...

    That didn't answer my first question.
    English Mile (1,6 km) or Metric Mile (10 km) or Nautical Mile (1,852 km)

    For you, you can pick which one you want to interpret it as.

    Easy money. Not even presidents of SMEs can make a lot of money in 3 months. Sign up Ai-chan for the 4 mile run. That's pretty much what Ai-chan used to do every day back when Ai-chan worked for a bookstore.
