That’s awesome! Congrats on the streak!! Keep on going!
Are you using any kind of software / website to track that would be available for others?
Nope, sorry; highly non-official = just my own amusement
Oh yeah, almost forgot (when people say “but how do we know your results are accurate?”)
EricTheBiking’s training log has an “official” 100/100 for 2025-26 - https://training.eric-jensen.org/ and click “enroll” in the challenge.
It started Nov 15th - plenty of time before Feb 22nd to catch up (or not, as you please)
I’ll probably go for 101 again this year. Now that I have 2 hockey games every Saturday night and coach hockey on Sunday evenings, it’s a little tougher to get doubles in
I forgot all about this. Here’s mine. I am just using a low tech logging approach by drawing a 10x10 grid on a piece of scrap paper to represent the 100 days. If I run, I fill in the square. If I do not run, then I leave it blank.
The “Seinfeld Strategy”
Brad Isaac was a young comedian starting out on the comedy circuit. One fateful night, he found himself in a club where Jerry Seinfeld was performing. In an interview on Lifehacker, Isaac shared what happened when he caught Seinfeld backstage and asked if he had “any tips for a young comic.”
Here’s how Isaac described the interaction with Seinfeld…
He said the way to be a better comic was to create better jokes and the way to create better jokes was to write every day.
He told me to get a big wall calendar that has a whole year on one page and hang it on a prominent wall. The next step was to get a big red magic marker. He said for each day that I do my task of writing, I get to put a big red X over that day.
“After a few days you’ll have a chain. Just keep at it and the chain will grow longer every day. You’ll like seeing that chain, especially when you get a few weeks under your belt. Your only job is to not break the chain.”
He told me to get a big wall calendar…
I considered a calendar, but the simplicity of a 10x10 grid just seemed appropriate for this event. ![]()
Let me also say that I love that you abandoned the “days-of-the-week” protocol, because that doesn’t really matter here
“Oh look! I ran three Sundays in a row” or “I always take Mondays off”
We created a page on our site.
Challenge starts tomorrow (15 Dec)
Please feel free to DM me with feedback on the site if you see anything strange. We’ll add a results page ASAP as well.
Naturally the weather has left all trails and roads here in good ol’ Canada in a state the zomboni driver of the Vancouver Canucks would be proud of, so it will be a fun one from day one!
Seven tenths of the way there! I worked my way up to 63/70. Probably going to miss at least a day due to the big snowstorm coming in tomorrow though.
That’s a nice streak you’ve got going there!!!
Yes, I’m planning on “taking a zero” tomorrow as well
A blind friend of mine has asked me to go run with her from 5am to sunrise tomorrow morning, so of course my headlamp is on charge right now..
Is that 5AM call part of a 24-Hour event or that’s just when she wants to go?
Her 8% vision works better in the dark - her handle is Batgirl ![]()
I neglected to create/post a bib for yesterday’s annual event
Presidents Day Challenge
February
Any distance you want but route must include a street named for a US President (Washington Ave., Lincoln Drive, etc.)
Looks like I’m taking a ZERO tomorrow - so I doubled up today LOL
not that it matters. I lost track sometime in January and never got back on
To quote Ben Gravy “What’s your claim?”
I’m gonna claim 87/100, just to say ‘something’
Got my 100th in this afternoon (double today), so should finish right where I wanted with 101 tomorrow
I’m somewhere in the 90s…will submit my final report later today after I run (or not run) ![]()
101 does it - ended up being after dark because I got word as I arrived home from a hockey game that I had to turn around and go play another game from which I didn’t get back until 6:30pm. We also got a good dump of snow today, so a snowshoe run seemed appropriate (and was probably my best option really). I had 660km for the challenge as of this morning, so obviously did 6k to finish it off…plus a pinch, because the trail I ran isn’t exactly 6km ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
