May day, May day!

I’ve been running for over 37 years which comes out to 13,310 days (including 1,685 days off due to injury).  Over that time I’ve averaged a little over 9.5 miles per day.  One of the oddities of tracking miles run each day and days off is that for whatever reason I have NEVER missed running on May 9^th and May 12^th.  I’m not sure what the odds of this randomly happening are, I’ve just been lucky enough to never be injured enough to miss those two days.  Here is a breakdown of May 9 and 12.
