I know he did "a run" when in a leg cast ... So is it s mile of any pace that includes something that you personally call s run? No disrespect just curious!

I don't know if its because of my replaced hip but I struggle with injury if I try running streaks these days. 4 days in a row is my max and then I'm finding I need to rest or switch to cross training for a day. Thats just me though.
EvilPixie Feb 2017 8:24pm, 11 Feb 2017 12,285 posts	Quote Pin EvilPixie Way back when I ran 6 days in 7 but given his age I wondered what the criteria was - is there one or is is a personal goal. Just a curious pondering!
