I have entered the virtual VLM and so my streak will come to an end probably the day before or definitely the day after. I should though have achieved 200 by then and I suspect I will never reach those heights again.

Day 4247 today. Making a little progress with my substreak of 4 miles a day. That's 52 days of that. Yesterday's mile warm up and 5 miles at 8s didn't feel to onerous.
Talking of Streak Runners International, I'm the founding member - after asking the main American site why they didn't cater for us non-Yanks. They do a quarterly newsletter which includes little updates on people's streaks - good and bad - and there are lists of current and retired streaks. Worth joining but I think you have to have done a year to qualify.

Ooh, Big Al is there a separate website for the non US streak runners?

Big Al - you do. 365 or 366 if a leap year.
TBR - for the princely sum of $20 you get your name on the list and the quarterly newsletter.

There are now various lists, male/female, different countries etc.

I do wonder if I am the only transgender runner on there :)

Nice going all of you

I found mine today so hard... working rather than holidaying and not moving all morning stuck at my laptop I noted the run was so much harder than last week!! There may be a something there... possibly need to do more walking as well through the day

Just about managed a streak saver for day 241 on the dodgy ankle. Seemed to ease a little so managed to get the overall pace below 15 minutes per mile which I believe someone on here means still classes as a run?
