Finished Another 3.79mi Run Today

It was a wet snowy morning, which didn’t help my pace any. I honestly didn’t even feel like going out this morning, knowing that I don’t really have a race to train for right now.

There are a lot of virtual races I could sign up for I suppose but I don’t really feel like those are going to keep me motivated. I start to wonder if it’s time to give up the races and just run a set number of miles a week. However, part of doing the races is also to bring awareness for the need of, and raise support for, clean water.

    Returning to Vitamin D3

    After having had a few colds this past winter, and their negative effects on my running, I’ve decided to start taking vitamin D3 again. Having a cold while running was making it hard to breath and caused me to have a higher heartrate which was not great. I need to keep working on a the health journey I’ve been on and based on a lot of information I’ve listened to in the past most people in the U.S. are vitamin D3 deficient so it’s a good thing to do.

Anything that will help my breathing, and…

    Running And Giving Thanks

    Back at it after my camping vacation. I commend those that are able to stick with the training while on vacation. My love right now isn’t really conducive to running while on vacation much.

I spent some time giving God thanks for walking with me as I worked to get healthy, which allows me to run for clean water. #HWI #GRMarathon #Run4Water #WhyIRun I also spent some time giving Him thanks for the amazing wife He has blessed me with. In many ways my wife is the better half in our family. I’ve been blessed to have someone that can counter my failings when it comes to being a parent but also…

    Knocking Out Another 14 Miles With The Hope Water Team

    Only $355 more to go before October 20th, #GRMarathon day. That’s another 53 people that will get clean water in Africa. Just another $12.25 a day from partners to hit the goal. Who’s with me? https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun It was great to be able to join the Hope Water team again this morning and run with the group. I enjoyed some great conversation with Justin Dykstra. I could sure tell the difference between having someone to run with versus not when I finished the last 4 miles on my own. If you struggle to get out and run I strongly urge you to find a group to run with. The miles melt away when you get into conversation. And you are building real connections…
