#rep for keeping it up. I had intended to do lots in January with the intention of entering a XC race at the end of February but Xmas, a 2/12 year old and trips to the hospital (in a similar manner as yours) meant I did one run on NY's day.
As for keeping it up...if it brings a smile to your face then do it solely for it's own sake. No "training" or "improving". Just run for pleasure.

I know deep down everyone loves documenting every run with a selfie, so I did a whole month of it! https://lambonabike.wordpress.com/2016/02/01/january-runstreak/
I decided to do a run streak partly to see if I could and partly to set myself some better habits. I've enjoyed not having to decide whether to go for a run or not, but should probably have run more (quite a few "one mile" days...). I don't know whether I've really got any better but then my problems with running appear to be predominantly mental, not physical. I'd quite like to continue with it but am worried that it's going to become a stick to beat myself with - on the other hand, running every day has been good for my anxiety, which I'm struggling with at the moment. (So for today, I'm taking the sensible option of getting anxious about whether to continue or not... FML)
