Haha, yeah, the whole concept of a mileage run is new to me. Last year I ended with 28K (while foolishly flying on some non-Star airlines and booking some non-status eligible fares on LH), so I guess I should really have tried to do one. This year, I have no idea how many miles I'll end up with because it will totally depend on this new job. Depending on which clients I'm assigned to, I could be flying all over the place or nowhere at all. Fingers crossed!
