Give Children Clean Water: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr

I had to have slept really well last night, I felt great running this morning and the pace I was running at felt like I was doing way slower that I was.

Where are the best places for wells to go in Africa? The desire with new wells is to place them where they will have the maximum impact on the community. In many cases this will be near the school in the village. Water has a huge impact on children in Africa.

    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…

    Nearing The End Of The Marathon Training, Only One More To Go

    2nd to the last marathon training run today. Since I took a break yesterday in order to get some extra rest I decided to stick with the #Endomondo plan which called for some speed work, well sort of. ? I spent the slower end of the run lifting many of my family up in prayer, in addition to those in Africa that are still waiting for access to clean water. Our world is full of both physical and spiritual needs. When we take care of the physical needs it paves the way for the spiritual needs. #HWI #GRMarathon #Run4Water #WhyIRun Donate to Life – https://timn.me/2t9D4ne

    Knocking Out Another Monday Training Run

    I really enjoy being able to just turn on the workout worship music and just run while having one-on-one time, just me and God. This morning the Rusch family was on my mind and is in my prayers. I spent 10 years working at a Christian camp and was blessed to work with some many amazing people serving and ministering to others. I am totally blown away when I hear of the trials many of them end up going through. I do still trust in God’s truth that “in this world you will have trouble, but take heart, I have overcome the world.” I can’t even imagine what it is going to be like for the Rusch family but I know that God will be…

    Finishing Another Hot Cider Hustle

    It was cold, wet, windy, and snowy for the #HotCiderHustle this morning, but it was fun to see a few #HWI teammates out on a Saturday morning. I didn’t bring home any medal but I still felt really good about my run given the ground conditions. I made sure to wear my pullover cleats which helped me avoid a lot of slipping and sliding while keeping up my pace.

    DNF 14 Miles, Winter Won Today

    Some days you have a hard run, then there are some days where your it’s just brutal. Today the deep coat of fresh snow got the better of me. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus I was even doing my best just stick with my training plan running pace of 11:01/mi, but that wasn’t enough to get me through it. After 10 miles I just need to rest, which was only 2.5 miles after I had started up again running with the Hope Water team for maybe a mile before we parted ways. It’s tough having a day like to day knowing that in 2 weeks I’m supposed to be running a marathon (26.2 miles for those that don’t know).
