A Look Back at My 2025 and Ahead to 2026
"With 2025 being my ninth-straight full year of a daily running streak, it's admittedly somewhat hard to be inconsistent, but it's possible. I'd guess there were fewer perfunctory streakkeepers than in any other year of my streak. My four lowest weeks were all 25 to 27 miles, during two sets of housework weeks, which I'm sure are higher low points than in previous years. Everything else was basically 35 miles or higher."
"While I didn't hit my high-end target of 3,000 miles for the year, I ran more in 2025 than in any of my 33 years of running - by over 200 miles - with 2,915 miles. My highest mileage for a week, from Monday to Sunday, was only 130 miles. There were six 100- to 130-mile weeks and another couple between 90 and 100 miles."
The year included a ninth-straight full year of a daily running streak with very few perfunctory streak days. Weekly mileage rarely dropped below 35 miles, with four lowest weeks of 25–27 miles occurring during housework and two other low weeks during travel and post-race recovery. Annual mileage totaled 2,915 miles, the highest in 33 years though short of a 3,000-mile target. Peak weekly mileage reached 130 miles, with six weeks between 100 and 130 and a couple between 90 and 100. Achilles symptoms improved substantially, and the account closed with a nostalgic nod to early personal running blogs.
