Battling on to halfway

Just a quick update. On 18th of June last I set off on a streak of attempting to run at least 5K every day for a year. I’m now into my sixth month and with the weather deteriorating I reckon I’m settling in for my hardest period yet.

Today I was battling gale force winds, but at least I looked the part… Any and all encouragement gratefully received :-)

Well done Gary. You really are at the hardest part. The excitement and impetus of the start is over, the end is still a way off and the weather is on slide. Now is where you really get to test your metal. This is the period you will be most proud of at the end. You've got this!

Committing to that distance every day as a streak is most impressive. Takes much more commitment than just running every day when the distance can be just a mile to count. Keep going and post updates please!
