2000 rated players, how long did it take to reach this from 1700?

By the time you passed 2,000. Roughly how long was that duration of time since when you first reached 1700?

1 year? 2 years? 6 months?

I mean chess.com blitz rating, not OTB which I know would take longer.

Anyone? Is 1.5 years a fair goal?

Hm. If you have a lot of free time for yourself, maybe 6 months-1year is a good goal. If you don't have as much time, maybe 1-1.5 to gain 300 points is a good goal for that time period. 

I know a couple of friends who (played rapid) gained 300 points(1700-2000) in about 2 weeks. But that's because they had a lot of time, and they could play a lot of games.
