Hit 10,000 miles on my bike in 8 months

I was aiming for 5,000 this year, but I just rolled over 10,000 miles yesterday when I checked my odometer. Has anyone else accidentally crushed a fitness goal way faster than planned?

Wait, 41 miles every single day for 8 months straight? That's wild. I didn't even think about the metric thing being possible but man, even 6,200 miles is still insane to me. I struggle to get 20 miles in without my legs screaming.

Wait, 10,000 miles in 8 months? That's roughly 1,250 miles a month, which is like 41 miles a day every single day. I hate to be that person, but are you sure your odometer is set right? Most bike computers default to kilometers, so you might actually be at 10,000 kilometers which is only about 6,200 miles. Still a huge deal, don't get me wrong, but 10,000 real miles in 8 months would mean you're basically riding a century ride every two and a half days. That's pro level stuff unless you're on an e-bike or something.
