Starting a run streak is a great way to commit yourself to running. Stuart Calderwood, Senior Editor at New York Road Runners, recently hit a 25 year run streak milestone. The United States Running Streak Association, Inc. compiled a list of people who run every day. The record for running every day is currently 43 years, set by Mark Covert of California. There is also an international run streak list.

I had no idea so many people run every day! I've been running every day since January 1st, but have no plans to continue for many years. It's amazing hearing from people who do run every day, and how they make it a habit.

What's the longest “run streak” you've been able to achieve?
