As someone who has gastrointestinal issues (that seem like they will never get diagnosed), I cannot begin describe how uplifting it felt to hear you talk about that so candidly. Thank you.

[@CScullyBrown]

I'm so pleased to hear this because it makes ME feel less alone. I sit on the other side of the screen watching all my friends go on fun group runs that I'm too ashamed to join because of 50% chance I'll have issues in front of other people who may or may not be understanding. I want running friends so bad but it's not something I find easy to talk about openly. So many runners say "one day you will experience it" and here I am thinking, every other day I experience it! I wish it was more openly talked about!

Good job on the running. My husband is also running almost every day (also doesn't get sick) and now my 14yo daughter is starting to get into it, so that is indeed great of your dad to show you that type of life. Hope all is well with him. Your video is also inspirational to me, with feet and digestion issues, I might give it another go :-) (also turning 45 at the end of the year). All the best for more great running!

[@deanc2000]

I've been running for decades now as well. It keeps your cardiovascular system healthy and that's a huge deal. I don't care about racing anymore. I listen to fast music and try to stride with the rhythm of the beat. It makes the run more of a dance instead of a run, and so I can say I'm not running, but dancing to the beat for 30 minutes. Only 0.7% of the population can run a 5K, and only 5% of the population does any kind of regular exercise. I do experience a runner's high, but its a mix of psychology and physiology. Lastly, eating is so much more enjoyable if you exercise regularly.

[@CScullyBrown]

I concur. Especially to the music. Sometimes I run without music, especially on trails. But it's a huge factor to having fun. I always find that running Stat a surprise! Thanks for the comment!

But when times are good, I can't help but love it.

[@bn8781]

@@CScullyBrown I started running at 15 - I was “forced” lol, it was demanded for the two sports I did, sailing, as prep training, and fighting, we had run tests in the belt exams - I ran “forcefully” till I was 27, when I decided to quit the exams because I couldn’t handle the training load alongside my actual career. So then, at 27, I questioned myself if I would stop running, but instead I decided to, for the very first time, set a different goal, I didn’t have to reach a distance or a pace anymore, so I decided that my new goal was to ENJOY a run. Lmao. I always did very short distances, from 3k (that was my exams’ distance) to 5k. But when I set this goal of enjoying a run I “accidentally” began to go longer. I would see ppl passionate about running and would be profoundly intrigued by HOW could they enjoy that crap 😂 Now I’m 34, Ive been mostly to 21ks and nowadays I love running (and of course hate it as well). But when I started doing longer distances I started feeling the worst bowel cramps. Most runners I know don’t have that. And that really hit me.. coz running became my number one sport and it scares me to think I might be kept from doing it. It really helped seeing your personal experience. I never shit my pants, but definitely almost puked a hundred times and ran to bathrooms amongst several running peers watching my shame 🙃 I’m going to try diet changes.. but idk.. maybe that’s just how it is and I’ll need to grow accustomed to it the same way I did about enjoying the run… Looking forward to seeing next videos of yours, thanks again. And you also inspired me to perhaps someday become capable of running a much higher week volume, that whenever I saw on strava I thought was an only superhumans thing. The mind is a huge thing isnt it? Still amazes me every time :)

It's more than just "daily exercise" to stay fit. it also shouldn't be about shame even though i feel the same way.

thanks for the story and comment. Your body certainly adapts and it can definitely be detrimental if you don't switch it up.

Thanks for sharing! I keep getting blood sugar crashes while running, which triggers migraine Auras and/or ringing in my ears. I have been managing by eating a few scoops of ice cream before a run.

Luckily I found lots of blackberry bushes and stuff my face for 15 minutes till the aura went away, then walk home. I run a 5k distance every other day and am training for a half marathon, long runs on the weekend.

My son is type 1. Diagnosed at 5 and he's turning 7... As a T1 caregiver... It blows my mind that you're able to do this! Whenever he gets active it means go time for me trying to keep enough sugar in him for him to be able to run around without hitting low. It's a different world indeed but it gives me hope that he will get to be active when he gets older as more and more T1's share their adventures. I finished my first 50k in June and love running but I can only do so long on a streak before needing a day off. Everyone is different, ideally though... I think 5k is the perfect daily distance. I'm going to try and start a streak again to see how it goes, I normally do 6 days rest 1. Would love your pointers on form.

[@CScullyBrown]

Thank you so much for the kind words. I always said, I couldn't imagine being a T1 parent. i got DX'd at 22 so no one has ever had to care for me. Exercise poses all sorts of challenges and I find myself fixing things on the fly. Each sport affects blood sugar differently and for me as an "aging female" lol, I am facing highs and lows at every turn where I didn't used to. It's forever a learning process. It's more about being prepared with both sugar and insulin and relying heavily on the technology of the CGM which is huge. Good luck to you and your own adventures, I'm training for my own first 50k (and possibly 100k) too. Pointers on form are hard because form relies so heavily on your own body. I know for me, switching to a higher cadence and forefoot strike are the two things that improved everything. But it's not perfect and doesn't work for every one! good luck!

[@chayabrenan2374]

Hey you. I'm a trail runner apparently exactly your age. Respect. Part of my reasons are also managing stuff in my own head and body, stuff to overcome. Your points sound all very familiar. As a man, I do those strength exercises to balance upper and lower body musculature. Run less, gain more muscle; run more, lose some muscle. Funny how predictable the body can be. I had a long, long 3x week strike once. Running every day does cause stress fractures for me, maybe I'm trying to push too hard and then there's that serious sub-zero weather with snow and ice that does wear you out in different ways before spring comes around. But anyway, may you run long and find the peace you need, and maybe we cross trails one day.

[@CScullyBrown]

Stress and anxiety are a huge factor for me too. I find it difficult to turn my brain off if I'm not exercising. I'm trying hard to do more strength but it's such a chore because i hate it.

I completely empathize with the gastrointestinal issues running.

[@CScullyBrown]

it's such a double edged sword isn't it? our bodies revolt, but WHY?!

[@Runningonthemind]

Well done Scully, brilliant achievement getting past 400 day streak. I’m on day 159 today averaging around 5 miles per day. People like yourself inspire me to keep pushing forward and I’m loving it (most of the time).

[@CScullyBrown]

5miles a day is impressive for that length of time. I was surprised myself when I calculated my average. Keep it going, you'll never love every day, that's impossible. But the good days make it so much more enjoyable.

Thank you for Sharing the💩facts! 💩Happens! Keep Rocking out those miles Dear🤗 They are Good for the Body, the Mind, your Spirit and your Soul🙏🕊❤️

Thank you!

To people who have a hard time getting started look up “slow jogging” and even “interval walking” …baby steps

[@rubensonorio8805]

Amazing 🤩 congratulations 👏👏👏have you tried to add some plain gelatin powder to your meal to help the poop issues ??

[@CScullyBrown]

can't say I've tried that one yet! might have to.

[@tri0xin]

Nice! Congrats. Your streak is super impressive and your dads! holy cow! I just turned 50 a few weeks ago and decided to do a year of daily running. Today was day 16.. 349 to go :) I feel like i'm capable.. just gotta keep watching videos like yours :) I've been a fairly consistent every other day runner for probably 25 years. I'm just worried about food poisoning or stepping off a curb :) Do you have another goal now.. 2 years ? Also have you checked out Roverunner's channel? He's almost 2 years in.

[@CScullyBrown]

thanks for the comment! I wasn't sure how a silly video like this would be received. I love my run streak and have no plans of stopping anytime soon. Maybe one day I will get burned out, who knows. Keep it up, if you really enjoy running, the challenge of the daily grind makes it so much more fun. Gives you something to work towards. It sounds like you've already got a great base for it like I did. I feel like most people who don't do well at this are new runners. I have no idea what my next goal is but I am training for a 50k and possibly even longer after that. I am always worried about feeling unwell or actually injuring myself. I will check out Roverunners channel, thanks for the recommendation!

A running routine is the best on average.

In April, a friend invited me to tackle some challenging mountain hikes here in the Yukon, but I knew I was in terrible shape after a winter of struggling with seasonal depression. I didn't want to hold them back or be unable to keep up, so I started running to get in shape for the summer adventures. It's been a game-changer! Not only did I survive the demanding hikes, but I also discovered a new passion for running. I prefer trail runs, but with the abundance of bears in our area, I always make sure to find a running buddy for safety. It can be tough to coordinate, but it's worth it. Along with running, I've also started weightlifting and have lost 13 pounds, feeling stronger and leaner. Your video is incredibly inspiring - thank you for sharing your story and motivating others to take control of their fitness journey!

[@CScullyBrown]

That's amazing and I love it! I appreciate the comment so much. It's amazing how the simple act of moving your feet quickly can have so much positive impact! I wish I had the desire to do weights like you!

[@khorweilean1183]

Good job😀

[@wallyevans4228]

May I respectfully ask if you’ve tried a whole plant foods lifestyle? I use to have severe bowel issues before I started running

[@CScullyBrown]

Thanks. I've been some form of vegetarian/vegan for the better part of 25 years and no diet change has ever helped my issues. Not that I'm not open to any suggestions. I kind of gave up years ago trying to figure out why.

[@mat.frazer]

Nah, poop issues are real.

[@Casual_BackPacking]

As soon as running isnt difficult for me ill start trying to run everyday , i do walks 5 days a week for a year now and im starting to try to be consistent with running every other day , even when i started the walking i thought i had to do rest days

[@CScullyBrown]

@Casual_BackPacking I have been running for many years so starting this run streak was something I did knowing I had years in my legs. I started ir cautiously until i realized I wasn't getting injured. No matter what you do, you gotta listen to your body!

[@Casual_BackPacking]

@CScullyBrown thank you for the advice!

[@coreytaylor1673]

Awesome! ❤❤

[@moalosimoyane]

Amazing

[@xkrizalx]

have u tried taking immodium pills before run or in morning ? i have IBS. somehow it helps in my life. also need to know that your gut are intolerant too. like myself caffein,milk,etc

[@CScullyBrown]

I kind of feel like Immodium is something that shouldn't be taken on a regular basis so I'm hesitant to use that. Maybe on a race day or something. I don't know what I'm intolerant to. seems to be nothing and everything all at once! I don't get these issues with any other sport. ONLY running which makes me think it's an impact sports thing.

I’m on day 131 of my streak aged 66 minimum of 5km, yes its tough but I’m enjoying, I’ve just equalled my 5k PB 23:24 😀 I’m just not sure how I feel about your break with COVID, you must have been gutted but it’s called a running streak

[@CScullyBrown]

agreed, it's not a true streak but I did my best when I was at my sickest.

[@santiagocarlin9130]

Hey how do you avoid injuries?

[@CScullyBrown]

@santiagocarlin9130 I actually hurt my Achilles doing my first run streak about 6 months before I started this one. I think I slipped on some ice. Either way, I already had years of running so it wasn't a shock to my body and I upped my mileage slower this time. I also have a decent form that seems to work in my favor. I think! No way to know, I could sprain my ankle tomorrow! Maybe I've just been lucky!

[@leenraus9172]

I like that you run even with type 1 diabetes but what concerns me is that your feet look uglyer every day. Please take good care of your feet to prevent diabetes feet Kind regards from a nurse in Belgium take care ❤

[@CScullyBrown]

Thanks for caring about my ugly feet! They are no different than any other runners feet. Callouses, blisters, and lost toenails. Just because I have diabetes does not mean my feet can't handle what other runners suffer. My docs ask about (and look at) my feet all the time. They're good and hearty!
