Physical activity doesn't always have to be about performance. That's why streakers or streak runners commit to running at least 1.61 kilometers every day. The goal: to incorporate running into a daily routine.

Simply get out to run and forget about performance. This is the goal of aiming for a "running streak," a practice that is becoming popular in the United States. The concept is simple. Run every day, a small distance, at least 1.61 kilometers (the equivalent of a mile). "Running may occur on either the roads, a track, over hill and dale, or on a treadmill," says Streak Runners International.
