Join the inaugural "I <3 to run" Running Streak! We'll be running at least one mile every day, starting January 1st 2012.

Tips for keeping your running streak going:

1. Set a goal – 30 days, 60 days, 100 days.... 1001 days - As of December 13, 2011, 60-year-old Mark Covert had run at least one mile every day for the last 15,886 days (43+ years).
2. Write down your progress every day – Before you start, set up a system for tracking your miles / workouts.
3. Plan your runs – While you don’t have to know exactly when you’re going to run, you should think about it in the morning and have a vague idea.
4. Put on your running clothes – If you feel unmotivated, just change into your running clothes anyway. Walk around in them. Go outside and start walking. Soon, you’ll be running.
5. Take “break” days – No need to run 10 miles every day. You need days to recover and running for only 1 mile is the minimum.
6. Tell people about your goal – When you tell people about your goals it helps motivate you not to let them down because you know they’ll ask you about it the next time they see you.
7. Listen to your favorite running music
8. Try a new route
9. Run with a purpose – Sometimes you just don’t feel like doing a formal workout. That’s ok, make your run have a point. For example, run to the store or the post office or the bank.
10. Schedule a race – Nothing gives your running more purpose than having to train for an upcoming race. Make it a 5K or a 10K if you don’t feel like running a marathon.
