Hit 500 miles on my jogging stroller last Tuesday and nobody cares but me

I keep a little notebook in the garage where I log every run I do pushing my kid around the neighborhood in her stroller. Last Tuesday I hit 500 miles exactly, which I only noticed because I flipped back through the pages and added it all up. That is 500 miles of dodging dog leashes, splashing through puddles, and singing the Bluey theme song on loop. It felt weirdly huge because nobody at work or in my family gives a flip about stroller running. But to me, that number means I have spent roughly 80 hours of exercise time with a 25 pound kid plus snacks strapped to the front. Has anyone else tracked some random personal milestone that felt massive to you but sounds silly when you say it out loud?

I logged every diaper change for a year and felt like a champ at three thousand.

Maybe it's just me but 3,000 diaper changes sounds like a lot of work just to feel like a champ over poop logs. @davis.casey, I mean, are you really trying to track that stuff or just looking for bragging rights?
