but seriously, streak running is bogus and serves no real purpose. Bone up on the miles and run real times. Running a mile or two, unless you are a beginner is a waste of time.

Anonymous - I appreciate your concern, but it's not like I only run a mile or 2 every day - just on my rest days. And I treat those days as an active recovery. And it has served a purpose, as with ME it is helping avoid injury. I have not had the slightest pain what-so-ever since my streak has started. And for the record - NO miles are a waste of time!

Thanks anyway!

You have no idea what you are talking about, friend. Active recovery does not take place on the course of your 10 minutes or less hobbyjog. Do some research- real research. This is why I beat you at all races.

Not sure who this is (why you posting anonymously?) BUT I have only done 5 races since I started my streak and 3 of them were PRs! (and the other 2 were course records) so I SERIOUSLY doubt that my running streak would be a reason why you are beating me in races!

And from personal experience, when I was taking days off, I was in much more pain during my rest days, and when I did run, it took a lot longer to get into my groove. I am not suggesting it for everyone, but it works well for me - AND my running coach is cool with it as well!

Thanks again!
