Runstreak advice

I completed December, and decided to keep going, but instead of sticking to the 25 minutes, where necessary I have just done 1 consecutive mile. I'm seeing a lot of benefits, but there are times when I get bored. I don't want to stop the runstreak, but I just wondered if there were other people out there who run every day, and what you do to stay motivated? (I have days where I don't wear a watch and go by how I feel, and a lot of my routes I log on map my run because my Garmin doesn't always work).

I have always used my Garmin before to log my training here (I have a lot of training logged here!) but if I run without a watch I use MMR to measure the distance. Is there a way of doing it without a Garmin (other watches are available I'm sure!) because playing games whilst running would be fun

Plot your route, and save it with a name e.g. "down to the horse field". When you add training, you can specify a route from your list. Pick the route you did. Job done
