Streaktember Day 22 is here, and honestly, I’m still not in the right headspace. This week has been heavy, and unlike weeks 2 and 3, where I found my rhythm, today’s run felt more like a mental battle than a physical one. But Streaktember Day 22 reminds me why I started: consistency, not perfection. The…
Streaktember Day 18 is done, and I’ve officially crowned myself “consistent Mrs. chicken.” 😂 I had every intention of pushing harder, but fatigue hit early, and I stopped right after hitting 1 mile. Still, the streak is alive, and that’s what really matters. Streaktember Day 18: Fatigue at the 5-Minute Mark Today was one of…
Streaktember Day 16 has me feeling so accomplished because today officially marks the point where I’ve run more days than I have left. I honestly can’t believe I’ve made it this far, considering how tough the early days were. Now that my body is getting used to it, I felt ready to push myself harder, and it…
Streaktember challenge Day 15 has arrived, and I can’t believe I’m already halfway through this challenge! This morning wasn’t smooth sailing at all, but that’s the reality of building consistency.

I got to the 10-minute mark barely tired, feeling good, even dancing a little while running (terrible idea!). I got distracted and didn’t…
I can’t believe it’s already been a week of running every day for Streaktember! Day 7 felt completely different from the days before, and I think I finally figured out why: proper rest. Yesterday, I started planning ahead because I knew I would be on a time crunch. I usually record my runs for social media, and…
Saturdays are already packed for me with chores, cooking, and errands, so I knew today would be a challenge. I planned to wake up at 5 am to complete my streaktember challenge for today, but somehow, I either turned off the alarm in my sleep or didn’t hear it at all. I woke up feeling…
