Hitting My Easy Run Hard, Because It Felt Alright

Despite the outrageous things going on in the United States right now there are still things in our global world that haven’t changed, the need for clean water.

Help bring clean water to Africa: https://timn.me/2020HWI

I was a little slow getting out the door this morning but once I hit the pavement things felt good. I can honestly say that, for the most part, when I run it is a brief time when I feel like I am escaping from everything going on in the world. Listening to my music, focusing on my running while listening to my interval stats, trying to just take in my immediate surroundings, and remembering those without clean water. Maybe that is why things felt so good this morning, not that every run is that way, but getting out there has an impact not only physically but mentally and spiritually.

    Unusual Running For A Wednesday

    I waivered on whether to go out and run or break out the treadmill this morning. For me I figure if I’ve ran part of a marathon in a cold downpouring rain I can handle a 50 degree sprinkle for a free miles. In general I will always opt for the outdoors versus the treadmill. I found a new worship running album on Google Play Music this morning which I really enjoyed, and felt God had wanted me to hear that specific selection of songs this morning. I spent a chunk of time praying for the guys in my accountability group. Seems like more than ever lately all of us have felt attacked or at a low point. I’m thankful to have a group of…

    Knocking Down The Intense Baseline Run

    It was a pretty quick intense run this morning, just something to give #Endomondo a baseline for training plan adjustments. Not really much time to enjoy to think about much or enjoy the warmer weather. It’s OK to have one of those every once in a while. I wasn’t sure how today would go given I didn’t get my Tuesday run in after being sick Monday. Every day is a new day! #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #RiverBankRun

    Fighting For Integrity

    We aren’t born with a heart of integrity, and if we want it, we have to fight for it. – A Life Of Integrity In a world filled with concern for only ones self, and the drive for success, integrity is always being challenged. It isn’t as simple as just making the good choice, we have have to stand against an entire world that apposes us. To fight also means to surround ourselves with people who are always watching and holding us accountable. – A Life Of Integrity We can’t make it through this world as a Christ follower on our own, let alone maintain integrity. We all need partners to do life with and keep us accountable to living a life of integrity. We…
