Anyone streaking for the holiday?

Running streak of course!

I'm in, but I'll probably take the easy route of just running a mile on my off days. Good way to keep me motivated to get up and cross train!

Join me?!

Nope, never again. My doctor is pretty convinved running everyday is what caused my stress fracture.

It makes me sad, the streak was fun im never allowed to run more than 5x a week.

Yeah, I like the idea in terms of being motivational I guess, but I think complete rest days are so so important and I don't like that this discourages them. It also kind of seems like a recipe for burnout for people who may not be terribly active but try to complete this. I'm being a downer, sorry.

Must. Have. Rest days.

I want to streak for the holidays...but not in any sort of athletic way....

I'm doing something similar, #EveryDayCounts, which is 1 mile everyday between Thanksgiving and New Years. The difference is the 1 mile can be whatever--running,walking,elliptical, biking, etc. So far:

Turkey Day--4 mile turkey trot
Black Friday-2 mile dog walk
Saturday--8 mile run--last long run of my 1/2 training plan
Today--1.75 mile dog walk

I walk the dog at least once a day, so this shouldn't be too hard

I'll join you! I missed Friday, so I guess Saturday was my start day!

I've done a Holiday running streak every year for the last four years, and I'm doing it again. It really helps me stay motivated during the cold winter months.

Wooohoo! Yay for streakers! I missed Friday too bc of a funeral and the 10+ hours of driving there and back, but I started yesterday. I'll post on Monday's to check in with all the streakers!
