Heh.

After 264 days, it came to an end. It was partially sad. But, the month of August was a struggle as it was. Fortunately, my legs are recovered well.

I had an excuse though, I was in Haiti on the side of a mountain. Running was the last thing on my mind.

Oh well. Great run today. 2 days down. Back to the ole drawing board for a great streak.

It may be over, but 264 is impressive nonetheless!!! Great job! And I think a mountainside in Haiti is good enough reason!

The mountainside wasn't the problem. The fact I was surrounded by about 400 kids kept me from being productive. Worth it all.

Congratulations on 264. 400 kids in Haiti-- that sounds like you were doing something pretty awesome and worth breaking the streak. Smile

Congrats. Streaks serve a purpose- and then they don't. The real trick is to realize where that line is.

264 is an excellent streak. Congratulations!! Running a whole week without an offday is great. Let alone 9 months.

Congrats on the 264 days -- sounds like your reason for stopping was a worthy one.
