 Paul you just wrapped up a run and it's been one of many how many days in a row at the time of this filming Have you ran so far? 1184 at least one mile a day, and he's not kidding Apart from the record Record is over 50 years a guy at California's run every day for over 50 years at least a mile So I my mind is over three a little over three years Is that what sparked your interest to do this or what exactly started all of this? I think I was interested in just seeing if I could do it and I did one streak and I got hurt And I had to stop after 326 days as I turned out I was running too much. I wasn't very organized I was I run three miles one night eight miles the next six miles following that nine miles after that and it started to take a toll and I Made the error of switching shoes in the middle of the street To a different brand of shoes that the company said don't run far in these shoes at the beginning get used to it Of course, I ignored it. I wound up, you know messing up my legs and blisters and stuff on my feet so I The combination of that and a couple other things I had to stop that first week What has been that key to your success when it does come to staying healthy just doing it? Now I'm at the point where I don't have any excuses and no valid excuse not to run You really have to have a focus in life not to do something There's really no excuse not to do something if you're really into running I was running in high school wasn't very good And then when I started running again In my late fifties I found I was competitive. I was not competitive in high school So it felt good to be on the podium for five K's and ten K's and and when my age group I've never really been a winner in that regard in athletics, so that felt good So that was another motivating fact now what you just said about having no excuses That's extremely inspiring Motivating there's a lot of people who are watching this journey of yours whether on social media or reading about you in Runners world and magazines and everywhere What do you feel about that in terms of but the impact that you're having on those viewers or those readers or just anybody Who's just following along with your journey? It's great. You know, I've gotten some Comments on my Instagram feed and Facebook how inspiring I've been to a few other people who have started their own street One person in particular that she's not doing a running streak But she's doing a walking streak and she's over 500 days now walking in a row And that was a catalyst my running streak to get her going And so you know you kind of support everybody who has the at least the notion of trying something like that That's the first step you get it in your head and go out and try it and the most difficult thing is to keep it going It only takes me, you know 10 minutes 10 15 minutes to run each night It's not like I'm devoting a lot of time to this So I always say I go out. It's I usually run just before midnight I'll go out and do my run and then I can go back home and get my beer and bonbons and much to me I like that So at the point of the 5k that they had here at George M. Stambrader Field how many days in a row What's your street? Well, it was it was 1100 and 81 I see no reason to stop and that's that's what people are when you're gonna stop how long you're gonna go I don't know you have they ask Ripken how long he was gonna continue his Hitting his games play streak. No, you just go out there every night or every day and do it until something compelling Makes you stop
