This week marked a new milestone – 120 days of my running streak! Some of the new stats for the streak:
- Total mileage: 713.55 miles
- Average daily mileage: 5.897 miles
I definitely noticed some fatigue this week. Saturday, my legs felt like lead and my feet were starting to hurt. I keep saying I’m going to cut down the weekly mileage and take some days off — or just go 1 mile to keep the streak up — but then something happens and I don’t. I’m proud of making it this far, so we’ll see how long this goes for.
This week brought 40+ miles again:
Some highlights:
Sunday, LM (and B) slept until 9 (!!) so FW and I got in a stroller run for bagels before they even got up. 5ish miles, including a pickup of bagels, was a perfect way to kick off the week.
I got in 2 7-milers this week! This one was under 10 min/miles, an accomplishment for me lately.
I saw plenty of deer, including these just sitting down/hanging out. 
And look at this! I think it was a cicada? Saw 2 of them this week. 2020 just keeps getting more fun!
Some questions for you:
- Have you seen cicadas?
- Do you find that if you take a day or two off from running, you come back stronger?
I’m linking up with Deborah and Kim for the Weekly Run Down.
I also saw a cicada the other night I had no idea they were out. Of course they are it’s 2020! You sure are going strong with this run streak of yours. Stay well and happy thanks for linking up
Awesome job continuing your run streak!!
I’ve never seen cicadas, but I hear them every night – they are always so loud!
I saw a cicada last week, he (she?) flew out of a pile of branches that I was carrying through the yard, EEK! Totally freaked me out LOL

I just found a dead cicada on our table outdoors. My dog likes to eat them. Ewwwww.
Nice work on those miles and that streak! Summertime is tough for streaking.
I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a cicada! Yikes!
I love those deer. Great job this week! I hope you are able to get some rest this week.
That cicada looks so scary! I haven’t seen any but I have been hearing them. They are so loud! Great job!
Solid job on your running streak!
Great job on your streak!!!
