Streak Running

During the pandemic I started running almost every day and I set a goal for myself to run every single day in 2021. I accomplished that and just kept going until April of the following year when I took a couple of days off before the 2022 BMO Vancouver Marathon.

On September 20, 2022, I started another run streak. I didn’t know it at the time, but I had decided that I would start running daily again on October 1, 2022 and started it early. That streak lasted through until May 23, 2023 when I decided to take a break from daily running for a while.

There are pros and cons to daily running but generally I think it’s a positive thing to do. The pressure of running through injuries, sickness or vacations are some of the cons. On the pro side, getting out to put in 15 minutes or more each day has good mental and physical benefits.
