A Quick 5K For The Children
Every mile the #HWI Team runs is a commitment to bring clean water to those in need in Africa. Villages like Ronkorhun where there are not only families but a school. However, children can’t attend school if they must spend their days walking to gather water. #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon Donate to Wells in Africa: https://timn.me/2Kx7NErA Brutal Winter Run
Wow, that is all I can say about the weather this morning on my run. Between the freezing rain pelting me, the massive wind gusts, and the snow-covered sidewalks that reduced my traction to almost zero, let’s just say I felt like I ran 12 miles not just shy of 6. I laugh because today was supposed to be an easy run day, and with that pace you might think I took it slow but that wasn’t really what went down. Mornings like this make it hard to focus on much else than the will power to keep going and get it done. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #RiverBankRunRunning 6 Miles And Feelin’ Fine
I keep wavering on whether to stop the half marathon training plan I’m on and switch to the #HWI #GRMarathon #training plan or not. When I get 6+ miles in and feel good I find it hard to go back to just 3 miles. The longer runs also mean more #GodTime so there’s that aspect as well. ? #HessLakeRunA Bad Great Run

My problem is that I can’t sustain my faster pace for an entire full marathon, and I question even a half marathon right now. When I start too fast I use up so much energy that I hit a big wall too early on. Part of the reason for slower long runs is to build up endurance. Just pounding out the miles as fast as you can all the…Sticking With The Pacers
I wanted to make sure I hit my target based on how my training went. I decided before the race even started that I was going to stick with the pacers. That plan paid off. Even though my target pace was supposed to be 8:42 min/mi my choices for pacers was 8:30 or 9:00 and so I decided to stick myself in between, but really I just stuck with the 8:30 pacers the whole way, mostly. After hitting mile 10 on Butterworth Street there was a long stretch that was all downhill. I took advantage of that hill and passed the 8:40 pacers. I maintained that position probably up to around mile 14 which is when the mental part of my run had to kick…
