I find daily running to become a habit. I get nervous if I have to take a rest day too soon. However, I am a strong advocate of at least one rest day a week. Many running books suggest taking every seventh day off, coordinating a running schedule with a work schedule. Over a period of twenty years I've gradually increased the frequency of rest days from one every two weeks to one every five days. This is mainly due to listening to the body for sign of over fatigue. Another advantage of a non-seven day cycle is scheduling some activity on the rest day that might interfere with running such a long travel day or a backpack.
