Starting Off Slow, Then Getting In A Groove
For the first 4-5 minutes it felt like it was going to be a slower day, but after getting the first mile under my belt things turned around. From there on I just slowly kept picking up the pace. This has been pretty typical with how my runs have been going. Hoping to get another couple longer runs in before my running break. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathonNew Route, Same Running Partner
I met up with my running partner at the Riley Street Middle School this morning, and we tackled a new running route. Runner’s know you don’t want change up too much at once. It was a mostly rural run, had to run the roads for the majority of the route, but that was just fine, while have some good conversation with my running partner. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #RiverBankRunNailing The Saturday Long Run
This morning I really just ran to the worship music and went at the pace that felt comfortable. I’m pretty blown away to see how much I improved my pace in just a couple of weeks, where I finished with a 9:50 min/mi pace. I think the most enjoyable part of my run this morning was just being pleasantly surprised by the next worship song. When the next song came on I just got into a zone of focusing on the music and running in time with it. I loved it. When I run in the morning it has 2 main purposes for me, the first is to have a conversation starter to make people aware of the huge need for wells in Africa, and…7 Mile Interval Run To Kick Things Into High Gear
Another interval #training run to kick my butt, got it done. #hwi #HessLakeRun #Run4WaterStepping Up The Long Run Miles
On Saturday I was up at 4:15am to get my 11 miles in before family time. It felt good to get a longer run in and not be so concerned about my pace, though I did have a time limit so that is always an additional motivator. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #RiverBankRun Will you commit to help with clean water? https://timn.me/2Kx7NErHitting The Pavement After The Grand Rapids Marathon
Back in the saddle with an “easy” 9 mile run. I’m still finding it hard to keep a consistent pace. I tried to keep it in the 10:14 min/mile pace but it’s hard for me to get in a rhythm at that pace. It felt good to be back out running again after the marathon. I enjoy the quiet time. I’m still trying to hit the $2000 mark for clean water. I’ve only got $350 more to go. I’m praying that my show of dedication to running inspires someone to partner with me. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun Donate to Clean Water – https://timn.me/2t9D4ne
