Running On The Treadmill Is A Mental Challenge
Well, all I can say is that I did run this morning. I couldn’t mentally handle anything more than 1 1/2 hours on the treadmill. #hwi #training #HessLakeRace #Run4Water

The Defining Moment For Why I Run
My run this morning consisted of a combo of an #Endomondo easy and a #HWI hard Tuesday run. Though many might see me as not knowing the meaning of an easy run, ha. I spent a lot of time reflecting on my time in Sierra Leone and the defining moment that occurred and encapsulates why I run. How do you process, and what action do you take when a woman is so desperate for water that she wants you to take her child away so that they have a chance to survive? That was it for me, #WaterIsLife and for many they would do something unthinkable for their children, let alone themselves, to survive. People tell me I’m crazy for running a marathon. Is anything…

Knocking Out 14 Miles For Clean Water
This past week I was reading a YouVersion devotional written by a marathon runner. The author talked about the point during the marathon when we are faced with the question “why am I doing this?”. This can also happen during those tough training days. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus Today was a good day, but on a long run the question of why can still pop up.

3rd 5K, Tough Morning…Inclines
This morning felt like a pretty big challenge. It being my 3rd 5K this week I just felt off from the start. After looking at my distance climbed I think I understand why today felt like so much of a struggle, I had about 90 feet of incline then my last 2 5Ks. Looks like the machine decided to take things up a notch today. I’m not unhappy with my pace. It just feels like I took a step back from the start of the week. I think my body is still recovering from lack of sleep since I was up way late the night before last. I hope it’ll work to make it to a HWP group run soon.

Will This Be The New Dawn of Mastodon?
I have been on #Mastodon since 2018 after exploring #POSSE and the #IndieWeb so I’ll be curious to see what comes of the seemingly mass exodus of #Twitter users coming into the Mastodon realm. #WordPress #SocialMedia
