Another Interval Run That Kicked My Butt
It wasn’t pretty, but I got my run in and finished. I’m about $900 short on my fundraiser right now so any support would be huge. Join with me to bring clean water to Africa. #HWI #KCC #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRHalfMarathon #RiverBankRun
Running In The Heat, And A Johnny On The Way
Some may ask, after a few years of raising money for wells, “why more wells?”. What most don’t even think about is both the pros and the cons of a new well in a village. You may be surprised to even think that there could be a downside to a new well in a village. A new well not only provides for a village but now there are those outside the village they will come because the water source is closer. Some may even relocate to a village because there is a new water source that is readily available.

Monday 5K For Clean Water
Just a short training run this morning, an easy 5K. There was a fresh blanket of snow for the run this morning. It was a nice crisp morning for running. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus Give A Christmas Gift of Clean Water: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr

Knocking Out Another Long Run With My Running Partner
It was a great morning for a long run with my running partner John. It was nice to have him help me keep a better pace throughout the run which actually resulted in an even better finish, both in pace and how I felt. Sometimes accountability it the best thing to keep you in track. I definitely feel more ready for the Groundhog Day Marathon now compared to some of my other recent runs. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus “If you want to run far, run in community.

Tackling The Fitness Level Test Run
Today was just a short fitness level test run. I was kind of hoping I might hit the 5k mark but I just wasn’t fast enough to get that additional half mile in. I’m curious how #Endomondo is going to adjust my training plan after this run. I really didn’t have much of a quiet time due to the intensity of the run. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus
