The toughest part about starting a really good racing streak is getting in on the first race. I mean, if you started on the 2nd, or the 4th, or the 16th race, you can't look with disdain at the runner lined up next to you and say "Yeah, I've run every single one of these races. How about you, Loser?"
I've already gotten in on one prime opportunity this year, the inaugural Corvallis Half Marathon back in April.
And here's another perfect chance: the inaugural Runaway Pumpkin Half Marathon in Lebabon, OR on the 29th. You know you want to...it's your chance to get in on the ground floor. When they're running the Runaway Half in 2036, you'll be able to say, "Yeah, I've run all 25 of these babies...and boy, are my feet tired."
Rimshot!
