Just back from an 8km run. That puts me over 200km for the year. I didn't run in January so I'm behind the curve in that regard, but if I carry on my February onwards rate then I will manage a 1,000km year. Trouble is I will probably need plenty in the bank before November as the cold and wet weather will almost certainly keep me indoors more often than not.
Worryingly, I had to stop a couple of times on my run today with knee pain in my left knee, which I had trouble with several years ago. No idea what it was, but I would run and it would be in pain for several days after. It lasted well over a year, I'd run fine, but it would hurt for 3-4 days afterwards to the point that getting up and down stairs was a mission. I just stopped running for a good 2 or 3 years. Then I started it up again and it was fine. I'm hoping whatever that was hasn't come back. I reckon it could have been because of the treadmill.
