I have always been in AWE of those people that do Run Streaks. Before we go on, I think I need to explain that a run streak is running everyday, not running naked😱!! Anyway, who wouldn’t be impressed with someone that doesn’t take any rest days? Doesn’t just opt out of a run because they can’t be bothered? Avoid a run because it’s cold outside? Just writing some of these excuses makes me feel lazy!
There are so many people that are currently on run streaks or have completed run streaks recently. My friend Rav immediately springs to mind. She has been running every day for over 1000 days now. Not only does she run every day she ran her first marathon in October 2020 and already has 7 under her belt 4 months later!
Then Kevin Sinfield completed his run streak at the start of December raising money for MNDA. He ran 7 marathons in 7 days. I can hardly walk the day after a marathon let alone run another one! My friends Mike and Christine completed their own 7in7 run streak prior to Christmas. They ran 7 miles a day for 7 days, finishing on Christmas day. Eddie Izzard is currently running 31 marathon in 31 days on a TREADMILL! Now I am strange in that I don’t mind running on a treadmill, but marathons on one I am not so sure!
These people truly inspire me, yet I know their are many more that are doing streaks and are just as amazing.
