My streak ended at 1053 days with a small stress fracture in my heel. It's more important to me to heal (the heel) and be able to run and race well in my new (70...) age group than to limp through a mile and slow down my recovery. As far as injuries go, this is not a bad one and should be OK in a few weeks. This was a new streak record for me, but that's the way it goes. For now it's the dreaded elliptical...I've kept a daily exercise streak.
Out there running since dinosaurs roamed the earth
That is one impressive streak.
Heal up and feel better.
Thanks, Jeff! I averaged 6.1 miles a day, which was pretty high, but it worked for me!
Sorry to hear this, Karen! Knowing you, you will be back. In the meantime, rest up!

not bad for mile 25
That's an impressive streak! Sorry it ended, but congrats. Heal that heel!
Thanks, all. I’m already back to some running- not quite ready to try a streak, but hopefully I’ll get there!
Sorry to hear this. Glad you did what is right for you and I hope you’re feeling better!
