What does the k mean in 20k?

The k in 20k means miles. If you are running 20k you are running 20 miles. You put this question in Economics, so if you are indeed talking money, then 20k means 20 thousand dollars. ...K stands for Kilo (1000grams) so if you have 20, 000 grams, you have 20 Kilos. In financial trading terms, K refers to $1000, therefore 20K is $20,000. When expressed verbally and pertaining to running, 20k is actually written as 20km which is 20 kilometres not 20 miles as stated above (20 mi). So if you're running a 20K race carrying 20K to win a grand prize of $20K, you know what you're about to do.
