Frozen Beard On The Final Stretch Of Training For The Groundhog Day Marathon
So as not to disappoint my fellow running mates, I got out there and got my Monday training run done complete with a frozen beard. Things were pretty good so long as I didn’t have to run into the wind. I picked my route so I could minimize running into the wind. I was pleasantly surprised by my overall average pace after finishing. I think Wednesday might be the most interesting final training run, we’ll see. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus

Tackling 20 Miles With The Hope Water & Grand Rapids Marathon Teams
I’ve still got another $355 to go in the next 3 weeks to hit my goal for wells in Africa. There is also still donation matching that will be applied so your gift will actually have double the impact. Will you partner with me to bring clean water to Africa? Donate now: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon This morning I got up early, which is typical for me, and headed to the YMCA in downtown Grand Rapids to meet up with the Hope Water Team to run our 12 & 20 mile training runs. I got through about the the first 15 miles clipping along at about a 9:15 min/mile pace. When I got to about mile 15 something started rubbing on the side of…
Missing The Hope Water Team on an Early Morning Long Run
I knew it was going to be a tough run going it alone, then when I stepped out the door and felt the heat and humidity there was no doubt I was going to have a rough go of it. #HWI #KCC #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRHalfMarathon #RiverBankRun
Starting Off The Week With A Long Wet Training Run
Despite the rain and chill, caused by a little breeze, it was decent enough to get out for a longer run. The weather was still a big motivator to keep going, which unfortunately caused my pace to be faster than what the training plan called for, but oh well. #Endomondo I enjoyed a run full of #worship music, but I felt so overwhelmed by the needs of friends and family, physically; emotionally; and spiritually, that it was very hard to focus and being very specific in my prayers. Perhaps this morning was supposed to be more about worship then bringing the never-ending mound of needs to Him. I’m still hoping to continue to raise money for more wells. I’d love to be able to hit…
12 Miles For Clean Water On A Brisk Saturday Morning
There is a lot of planning and work involved with putting in a quality well that will sustain a village for years to come, and through long dry seasons. When you support a well through Hope Water you can know that your dollars are impacting generations. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun Make a global, and generational, impact by giving to clean water: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr With the River Bank Run now being postponed to the fall I’m not sure what my running will look like. I haven’t stopped my 25K training plan, but there won’t be a race to finish out the training. I’m considering a Virtual Race, but it will be more money spent. We’ll see what this year brings for running.
