thejoggler: Just broke my record for longest running streak...446 days in a row
I'm a long distance runner who has completed 29 marathons and one 50-mile ultra marathon. During all my workouts and races I juggle three bean bags. The sport, called joggling, is practiced by hundreds of people around the world. It's rare but not unique, just like me. I hold the world record for the fastest 50 miles done while juggling. My time 8:23:52. I want to set a world record for the fastest 100 miles done while juggling which I will do next year. I'm also a streak runner. My current goal is 1001 days in a row. I'm on day 385.
