Has to be two years in a row at least.

Birch Bay 25K 2006 & 2007 (moving up to the marathon distance in 08)

Lake Stevens 70.3   2006 & 2007 (good chance of doing it in 08)

BellinghamSpence - 2007-08-08 2:28 PM That is impressive Bear.

Eh, thanks. All are "local" races, although River Cities (Shreveport) and CCC and MGM (New Orleans) all involve six hours of driving and an overnight stay. I've had to walk a couple just to keep the streak alive, I've also run several as part of a longer training run to get my 20-miler or whatever in.

I think I had 7 years of the SeaFair race... 7 at the Bellingham Triathlon (before that race went up the "stairsteps"). That was long ago, however. I had '05 and '06 at Satsop and Kirkland, but I won't be doing either of those this year (the first because of a foot problem, the latter because I'm opting to do a different race that weekend).

My best streak that's still alive is the Lake Mills Sprint Triathlon...2002-2007...all improvements except one year (2005 I think), and that's the year I found BT.  This made me realize I've been tri-ing (translation, attempting to improve at swimming) since 2001.

Trailbreaker 1/2 marathon is 2006/2007 and counting.

I did do the Tour de Cure metric century for a lot of years in a row, probably 1988-1994 or so.

Here is mine:

Carpinteria Olympic Triathlon  2004,2005,2006 (Registered for 2007)
Orange County Marathon  - 2006, 2007 (Registered for 2008)
Silver Strand Half Marathon - 2005,2006 (Registered for 2007)

Carp is interesting in that the race is on or about my Birthday every year and 2004 was my first Triathlon ever. (Really, my first Race Ever)

In 2008, I will have a few more races to add to the list since I will be returning "To the Scene of the Crime" to several races I did in 2007.

Repeating races for me at least seems to work well. Every one of my repeats has resulted in a PB.

 Pretty short list.  Will probably be a while before another "streak," now that I've moved to Philadelphia for a 2-year program.

In other words, "all of 'em", since 2002 was the first year. 

I'd feel better about this "streak" were it not for 2005 where I covered the last 4 miles of the run in an ambulance :-(
