Avagadro's number, in miles?

My current miles-to-date are at least 2700 miles (since some short trips are not recorded and some trips are estimates). For reference, I have considered a
hard core cyclist (and one probably less encumbered) does 10,000 miles per year.
On my spread sheet, I have a field entitled “excuses,” most often working late, and a bout of plantar fasciitis this fall.
