Ah, those waves of disease than come with having a kid in school... I'm past that now, but I feel your pain. But I take "embrace your illness" a different way — sickness can be an opportunity for an adversity run, where you can learn/practice how to keep going when things aren't great. Plus, running fixes things, and I almost always feel better after than before.

As a streaker, I'd turn your question around and ask how it's possible to keep running in the long term without having a streak (or a set of streaks) to tend to... I'm lazy and I procrastinate and if I didn't have some non-negotiables in my running, I doubt I'd still be doing it.

Thanks for sharing "Lucy's Dad" — it is very well done.
