10 Mile Saturday Run For Hope Water

This morning I got my 10 Mile run in before catching the Team Zoom call. I’ve been trying to get my long Saturday runs done early so that my family isn’t impacted by me being gone all morning. I was happy to hear our leader talk about the fact that there are still people in Africa in need of clean water despite everything going on with and the hardships many are facing because of it.

I’m still matching up to $500 in donations. Consider making a global impact, give today. https://timn.me/2020HWI

    I Told My Wife I Was Just Going For A Short Run

    So my distance terminology might just be a little wacky. When I told my wife that I was just going for a short run tonight she asked if I was running to the end of the street, which of course I responded with no I was just running 5 miles. She laughed. The other day on a work call I mentioned only running between 6-9 miles in the mornings, which got some puzzling responses as well. Having tackled 3 marathons, and putting in hundreds of training miles, I can say that I’m officially a long distance runner. Today was a little bit of an off day since I ran in the evening. I’ve been managing a cold all week and not letting myself get enough…

    Before The Sun Rises, My Time To Run

    Only $375 to go towards my goal, only about $12 per day until #GRMarathon day on October 20th. Who’s going to help bring clean water to another 56 people in Africa? https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun My running photo for today is a pretty typical sight for me.It can be a rarity that I’m actually have the opportunity to run with the sun out. With the exception of some shorter runs with the Hope Water team on Saturdays, or a race, my time to run is generally early in the morning before the sun rises. Except for the fact that I’m not really a morning person, and would rather stay in bed than get up and run, I like the peacefulness of an early morning run….

    Knocking Out Another Couple Miles, Sporting A New Headlamp

    Who’s going to help me bring clean water to another 132 people? $825 to go to reach my goal, with matching will hit another 132 people blessed with clean water. https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon Careful planning goes into the process of putting in a well, it’s not random and or without care. The teams from World Hope that drill the new wells are skilled at what they do. They carefully choose a location and methodically carry out the execution of drilling a well. The result is reliable well to serve the community. It was a nice cool morning for a quick run. I gave my new headlamp a short test run. What a difference going from a 160 lumens headlamp to a 12000 lumens…

    I Am Blessed To Be Able To Run

    Short easy 5 mile training run this morning. My focus this morning was on the Jon Martinson family and the people of Sierra Leone. I can’t begin to know what it’s like to lose a spouse or parent at a young age. It’s hard to believe that a man I worked alongside for years, and was always way healthier than me, is facing his last days. As for Sierra Leone, last night I happened to catch a little montage video of my trip, back in May, that Google Photos made. It brought back so many feelings from my time there. I hope that I can return again. I’m also thankful to be a part of improving life there. #HWI #GRMarathon #Run4Water Donate to Clean Water…
