30 runs in 30 days - who's with us? (Page 175)

I don't think much of a short 2 mile run most days, but in the seldom times when I explain my streak to someone, they are floored.

Congrats on 3 years! I only hope I can make it that long before screwing something up.



I try not to talk about running too much so I don't become that guy who talks about running (or paintball or macrame or fantasy football) all the time, but I get the same reaction if it comes up. I'm always stunned, because it's not that hard to get out for 10-20 minutes every day.

#361 - 2.1
#362 - 2
#363 - 2.5
#364 - 2.6
#365 - 2 miles.

I'm still around and still streaking. I've been on an internship this summer, spending 70 hours a week in a kitchen in Positano, Italy. I don't think I reached 15 miles any week since May, but I still made it out every day. The next 11 runs are all vacation runs, which are second only to race day runs in awesomeness.

Great to see you're still at it, especially with how hard it sounds like you are working! Congrats on getting back to a year after that injury. Hopefully everything is pain free?

The ankle seems to be in great shape, other than the odd click, and the PF is under control as well.


#376 - 4 miles. Last run in Italy.
#377 - 2.5 treadmill miles.
#378 - 2 miles. I missed trail runs with the puppy. Didn't miss spiderwebs and horseflies.
#379 - 2.2 miles. Now my longest streak ever.

I haven't posted in awhile, but I'm also still at it. The streak is coming up on 4 years, started Oct. 22nd 2012.

#1446-1447-101.85 mi Grindstone 100 in 23 hours 5 minutes, finished 12/265 (still unofficial)
#1448- 2 mi (yesterday), still have to run today.

I finished my 3rd 100 mile race Saturday, the Grindstone 100. There were 291 registered runners, I think 265 started (official results haven't been released yet). It was a tough race, it rained the whole time, literally every second, and that course is tough, lots of long climbs and descents. I think there were 85 DNFs, and 180 finishers. I finished 12th. I was hoping for a top 10 finish, but I uncharacteristically had some GI issues that hurt my nutrition plan and slowed me down for a good chunk of the race. It was likely the 6pm start time that had my system off. I got my nutrition back on track during the second half and finished strong.
