Holiday Running Streak (Read 2628 times)

Not a dude

    Day 5 post-Thanksgiving...but actually day 6 since I ran Wednesday. I'm trying to stick with two miles every day because it just doesn't seem worth it to get changed to run a mile. So far so good. Hopefully this might help me more easily transition to a 6 day per week schedule...and get my ass out of bed every morning to make that happen. Smile Sorry your shins are giving you trouble, Lilac. I hope they feel better soon.

      Still at it.  Like Ennay, I have done a tipsy and stuffed mile, too.  I've also run in jeans, work clothes, bathing suit, casual shoes, no shoes, keens...I haven't run in a dress, and I haven't run in heels.  But that's about it.

        Tipsy and stuffed sounds tough! Although I have done my share of hangover runs, including a disastrous and hot Kona marathon. :X

          True dedication!

           

          I have run a few miles at the 2:00 - 3:00 a.m. time frame -- had the get the miles in before a trip.  And for the record, this current streak is ONLY miles run outside.  Not much stops me at this point.  Big grin

            Runners like Ojo and Sruiz inspire me to not be a wimp when all I have to do is get a run in at 10 o'clock.

                 Not as part of streaking per se, but I usually kick of the New Years with a 12:15 a.m. run.  Eat & drink tons of crap for hours leading up to it.  Drink some champagne.  Go run. 

                 

                It's fun.

                  With a group, it could indeed be fun.  The run might end in the slammer, though.

                      They'd much prefer to lock up the drunk nekkid people that aren't running away from them?

                        I was totally in on this streak until I got hit with a real nasty flu-like thing 2 days ago. And as quickly as it began, it ends. I'm not someone who will run when they can barely breathe. Even walking the dog was a real chore the past two days. But I've decided to restart it, regardless.

                          Today is day 11. My longest streak ever. 1/3 of the miles of my previous 10 day streak. But since I couldn't run much for a while after that one......

                            Day 8, 4 miles

                              I'm in on this - did it last year and it was a great distraction from the holiday madness and also a wonderful way to make sure I kept up with my running.

                               

                              I also convinced my wife to do it this year, so getting through it together is a bit of extra motivation.

                               

                              Day 5 for me - it was frigid cold here last night in Wisco, but getting our when I'd rather be doing nothing is one of the great things about the streak.
