  • What can we learn from running every day? We challenged The Running Channel presenter Anna to run every day for 30 days and document what she learned from it.
    ↓↓ Have you ever done a running streak? Do you agree with any of the things Anna learned from hers? Have you been inspired to try one? Tell us in the comments below ↓↓

      I'm currently 12 days into a planned 16 day running streak to accumulate 161k/100 miles during that time period (averaging 10k per day)! This video has inspired me to run everyday for a month, Jan 2020 seems like a great way to start off the New Year! Love the Running Channel! I agree with all of Anna's points, more laundry, some days tougher than others to be motivated, but overall my running is progressively better and stronger. I do change up my running route even just a little bit every couple of days to keep it fresh and on days where it has been really tough to motivate myself but I get it done, even treating myself to a coffee from a local coffee shop is a nice treat. Always look forward to Running Channel videos and these great challenges Anna shares with us. :) Well done, Anna! Cheers, Scott

    i'm 62 years old and i started running 6 miles everyday since July 2019. I lost weight and my blood pressure is at 110/70. It is now a routine for me. i wake up at 4:20 am, get ready and hit the sports complex and complete my run at 6:00 a.m. I then drive back home (10 minutes) get ready and off to work.

    Well done Anna. I am a barefoot streaker, currently on streak day 324, having started on 1st Jan this year. My personal rules are simple - a minimum of 5km outdoors (no treadmills) every day. I have loved it, although it has not always been easy. Work commitments have seen me up as early as 3:30am for a run, and on holiday I had one run where the temperature was 106 degrees F / 41 degrees C. Heavy hail one one of my long runs was also fun! 2,500km run this year so far. Keep on streaking!

    Today's run was 3 years and 95 days for my streak. My minimum is 1 mile which I do twice a week. There have been some serious tough days. A couple of things keep me focused.
    I post the runs so people keep me honest.
    I always have a race I've entered and training for.
    A lot of runs are with groups like parkrun, my interval group, a social run group.
    Makes it fun and time flies.
    I simultaneously love and hate my run.

      @@runningchannel there are roads in Amsterdam where it's pavement, cycle lane (with mopeds!), two lanes of road, two tram lines, two lanes of road, another cycle lane and back onto pavement. It's like playing Frogger, but Anna will be too young to know what that is!

    • @rustybaws
      @rustybaws 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Thought I would update. I started on January 1st. Decided to run a minimum of 5K or 30 mins whichever is longer. That way as I get fitter I'll end up running slightly more and slightly quicker. Now up to 355 injuries, including groin strain, hamstring pain, achilles pain and lower calf pain but I AM LOVING IT!

    • @gyozakeynsianism
      @gyozakeynsianism 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      So nice to hear about your progress. One tip I've learned (and reinforced by TRC) is to try to follow some training course. I do Garmin ones (it just shows up in the calendar and you can access the day's run on your watch) but you do you. Anyway the point is that the courses mix up exercises in a a way that minimizes injuries and makes you fitter faster. It's a win-win. That may not be running every day but it's very consistent and maybe better for you overall. (Also I'm sure you can find training courses that are designed for you to run every day.) Good luck!
