Knocking Out 6 Miles, Because Why Not
It was definitely a wintery run this morning. I chose to just focus on the distance this morning, and not any sort of time. It was nice to keep things at an easy pace. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun
Working Back Into A Running Routine
After a week without a run this morning was a little bit more challenging than I expected. It was still great to be back out for an early morning run. #HWI #WhyIRun #Run4Water
Last Training Run Before The Big Day, Remembering The Cause
Today was the last training run before the #GRMarathon on Sunday. I wanted to highlight what our team is working to accomplish.

No matter how much I train I always still feel a little nervous going into a race. There are many on the team where this will be their first full or half marathon, and the good thing…

Challenging Road To Water
For many even the road to a dirty water source is a treacherous one. A well placed well brings both clean water, and safety, to a village in Africa. I’m still looking for some additional partners to commit to the final $255 of my goal. Will you be that partner? https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon In the village of Ronkorhun they must travel over a rickety bridge, during the rainy season when the creek is flowing, to get to a hole in the ground where they collect their water. Can you imagine risking your safety to get water that can make you sick? That’s the situation many of those in Afeica are in. This morning was another speed work morning. On top of that I…
