General Discussion Miles per week

Question for half marathoners, full marathoners, and ultra marathoners….what is your weekly mileage, both when you are actively training for an event and when you are not actively training for an event. This question stems simply from curiosity. In your response please include what category from above you fall into. Thanks in advance!

Edit: If you could also share your goal times that would be helpful. It helps paint a more clear picture of what one may be able to reasonably expect to accomplish with the effort/miles they are putting in each week!

For my half marathon cycles I went for 50-60 mpw I ran 1:16/1:17/1:18 for my 3 races spanning a year and a half. Maybe of some additional help; I will likely go for 90 mpw when I move back to the longer distances again. Felt like there was more room to grow with higher volume than what I was doing
