Streak!


May 9 & May 12 are two weirdly significant dates in my running. Through a quirk of fate, I have never missed running on those two days. The other 364 days I’ve missed at least once in the more than 42 years of running.



May 9 – most run = 19 miles, least run = 3 miles.

May 12 – most run = 16 miles, least run = 3 miles.



I’ve averaged over 9.6 miles per day since I started running in December of 1978.  I’ve got five other days I’ve only missed once (May 8, 11, 15, and March 26 & 28).



Most popular date to not run:

Feb 23, July 23, Oct 31, Nov 19, and Dec 30 = 10



All in all, it seems pretty random.  November has my most days off with 206 and May has the least with 96.
