Kraft Though Tim Kraft’s running streak started 11 years ago — he has not missed a single day — he first got the bug a few years earlier. Kraft and his wife, Renee, 22-year residents of Edison, had been going to support friends participating in the Spring Lake 5-Mile Run every Memorial Day weekend.
