In 2021 I broke my lower leg, then ran my first 7 months later.

In 2022 I didn't run much.

I'm 2023 I'm trying something new. 1% daily improvement. Today I ran 1.03 miles. About 18 steps further than yesterday.

It feels a little silly to ONLY increase one percent over the prior day. However...

If I increase one percent each day, I'll be a half marathon in September and would be on track for over 37 miles per day by year end, without ever adding more than 0.37 miles per day.

I may hover at the half marathon distance once I reach it. Or plans may change. It's an experiment.

@steele yes!

The idea came out of a discussion with a coworker where I'd mentioned kaizen and he mentioned the book Atomic Habits. (Haven't read it yet.)

@SecondJon I really enjoyed Atomic Habits! I've also benefited from James Clear's email newsletter and his website/blog.
