Has anybody else heared of 'Streak Runners', i.e running every day to build up a 'streak' of runs ? Some runners have gone years without missing a day!What distance would you have to run each day to keep your 'streak' going ? ( min. distance)

Oh how disapointing! Thought this was gonna be about running in the buff! ;-)

Yep - it's in the magazine occasionally. I don't know that it matters distance wise, always thought it was just going out and doing the miles daily.

Sorry to disapoint KKD. Would a run of 2 miles be enough to keep a 'streak' going ?

You streak away Tommy if it makes you happy! :-)

I'd have thought as long as you were out every day that'd be fine.

think the "official" rule for this is a mile - seem to remember seeing it on the website

seems a bit daft to me if taken too seriously - saw a programme where Ron Hill went running with a seriously busted leg and in pain just to keep the streak going

We met one in Arizona, the morning after the 24 hour race as we were leaving our hotel one of th eguys who'd been running came jogging past-"I've got a streak" he told us. We could barely walk!!

Ron Hill's a bit of a bullshitter isn't he - jogging up and down a plane on a long haul flight or limping along on a broken leg doesn't count as a run.
