What is the #RWstreak?  The Runner’s World Streak is a holiday challenge extended by Runner’s World magazine to help keep runners motivated after their fall races and before spring training starts. It’s simple, you commit to run at least one mile per day between Thanksgiving Day and New Year’s Day.  Some days that will only mean a mile, some days it will be longer, but each day you run, regardless of your excuses and the reasons you normally wouldn’t run.  This year, I’ve decided to try my hand at this 48-day challenge! I’ll try and keep up with mini-blogs for each run, too.

DAY ONE

Weather: 62 degrees, partly cloudy

Mileage: 1.12 miles

Report: What a beautiful day to start the #RWstreak!  I only did a mile today because of getting back from vacation, getting ready to leave town again and all the things that have to be done along those lines.  After traveling, flying and eating vacation-style for the past week it did feel good to get out on the road and stretch out again.
