2014 Holiday Running Streak (Read 554 times)

Here we go again, holidays are around the corner. Who's in this year?

The rules: run at least 1 mile (for us who run in km that's 1,6 km, but let's say 2 km, 'cause it looks prettier) from Thanksgiving to New Years Day ( Nov. 27th to Jan. 1st ). If you fall off the wagon, you jump right on again! Your December mileage should beat the previous highest monthly mileage in 2013.

This is the link to last year's topic, run by xhristopher: 2013 Holiday Running Streak.

Last year I joined in just to see if I could pull it off. Well, you can take a look at my log to see how that went .

xhristopher - Also running the goofy races this year in Disney, I'm only doing the 5, 10 and half though. I also need to get my butt in gear so the experience isn't miserable. Last year this holiday streak was the best running of my year, so I am in again too!

 

 

 

Last year I joined in just to see if I could pull it off. Well, you can take a look at my log how that went .

Wow, you just continued last year's holiday streak and kept it going into this one! Awesome job!

Wow! Yeah, you are the right person to run this thread. Don't go easy on anyone.

Thanks Jancika.

I'm in.  Though I sincerely doubt that I will best my highest month.

In.  I need 343 to beat last year's high water mark.

In.

The streak part should be doable. I've got a 4th of July one going now.

The highest monthly mileage part will be a challenge. I'll need 240. But if I can pull that off it will also put me over 2 grand for the year. After a weak start in the early months, that would be a nice accomplishment for this year.

Thanks for the push Jancika.

I'll join for the streak, but I can't commit to besting monthly mileage.  For me it will be enough just to do it every day.  :-)
