One path, one start time, a few fixed stops with a fixed short act at each, walked before the day begins. Modelled on the thousand-day circuit of Mount Hiei and not that circuit. It keeps the days walked. It keeps no streak.
The route
Stops, up to five. At each, one short act: a bow, a breath, a line said, a stone touched.
Today
One tap after the walk. Missed days are not counted, not shown, and not held against you. The count below is days walked, which is the only number this page knows.
The record
The honest limit, stated first. The sennichi kaihogyo of Mount Hiei is seven years, a thousand days, thirty to eighty-four kilometres a day by phase, a nine-day fast without water or sleep in the middle, and fewer than fifty completions since 1885. The dagger and the rope the walker carries, to die rather than quit, are the most repeated facts about it and the least reliable: they are symbolic now, and the monastery selects its candidates so that nobody who would fail is permitted to start, which means the die-rather-than-quit story describes a filter, not a risk. The practice lives inside a thousand-year institution with a support team. A person alone with a no-rest-day rule has none of that, and the record for unsupported no-rest-day mechanics is injury and shame. So this page has no streak and no broken chain, on purpose. It is not kaihogyo. It is a path you walk before the day, and a count of the mornings you did.
