Kings of sidchas

in Fitness, Habits, Leadership, SIDCHAs

I knew my daily streaks of writing in my blog and doing burpees of nearly ten years were just starts. I like to find role models.

I discovered sidcha streaks that dwarf mine, in fact that started before I was born. Two organizations—Streak Runners International and United States Running Streak Association—track people who have run at least a mile per day. Their slogan: “Through weather, injury, illness, and life events, we run everyday.”

I put their list below of runners with streaks longer than my longest sidcha—writing in this blog. The longest active running streak belongs to Jon Sutherland, at over 51 years, closing in on the known record of Ron Hill, 78, a three-time Olympian for Great Britain, who ended his running streak on Sunday, January 29, 2017.

Inspiring articles and videos

Before the list, here are a few articles and videos on a few of the top streakers. The articles will inspire you. I love reading discoveries I’ve found too—the value of doing the sidcha on the hardest days, learning about yourself, how good it feels, handling serious injuries, handling weather, outperforming others who don’t give as much, and so on.

EDIT: The New York Times reported that Ron Hill died. It mentioned he often ran barefoot, which I started doing last year.

Here’s their list, or their top 244 streakers. Keep reading past the list as I keep finding more sidcha champions.
