Not your average streak

2009 January 31

Perry, the average joggler, is on day 74 of a joggling streak. His goal is to joggle at least one mile a day, but he usually runs further than that. 74 days is a great streak. I would be pretty impressed with myself if I’d run every day for almost two and a half months, but Perry’s goal is 1000 days! That’s nearly three years!

It doesn’t seem right to me that his joggling pace is faster than my running-without-juggling pace. I have yet to try running and juggling at the same time, but I imagine I would spend more time picking up my juggling balls than making forward progress. Check out Perry’s “drops” stat. After a 1000 days I wonder what his longest streak with no drops will be. I’ve already seen one of 8 days!

    Thanks for the kind words. I’m up to 117 days so far.

    The day after the marathon was a tough one but I managed to log just over 2 miles. Streaks like this are amazingly motivating. They hurt. But they are motivating.
