It's easy to get behind!
I made myself a goal to walk 3000 miles (4828 km) in 2014 (and my stretch goal is to cover 5000 km = 3106 miles). Getting behind happens one day at a time, as you can see in this graph, which plots how far behind (or ahead) I am each day.
As you can see, I was 161 miles behind on 6 June, which is day 157, so I the slope is about -1 mile per day. As summer has appeared in Seattle, I am catching up by averaging about 9 miles per day. I am hoping to boost that again when summer school is over and I can get in some long days of hiking.
I find this graph a pretty good motivator to get me to cover miles each day, I think it might be possible to get to 3000 miles (on other words, delta = 0 on 31 December.
