He'll still go out and do 1-2 miles now on days where he previously would have done nothing. I've never done a run streak but maybe I"ll do it with him this year- his streak went from Memorial Day- July 4th. We live in Florida so summer is our off-season!

I love even more how fun you make it to be. As you know I am also streaking but it was mostly because I was already running 5-6 days per week. One or two more days wasn't that big of a deal. :-) I thought about quitting when we got snow and the cold weather but kept going. Still no idea how much longer I will go but for now it is going well.<br /><br />Thank you for linking up with us!Zenaida Arroyohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18137949290555784656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5884362622170497685.post-65469934859720947662021-01-12T18:58:47.693-06:002021-01-12T18:58:47.693-06:00Congrats!
