Tackling An Intense 30 Minute Thursday Run

Some days you just feel great out there running and some days you don’t. Today was the latter, but it was still intense, and I was really pushing myself. It’s days like today that I actually appreciate those hard days where it feels like you are barely moving and all you can think of is, “Am I there yet?”. I appreciate those days because I know that without those days, and overcoming them, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I also know that especially on those days God was right there with me walking(sometimes literally) by my side helping me every step of the way.

As I spent time listening to the worship music and praying for my family and friends. I was also reminded of where I had been just a little over a year ago, and the greater purpose for my running. Thinking of the people of Sierra Leone Africa that I was honored to get to meet and know when I travelled there last year. I got to see first hand the struggles families have, but also the life changing difference access to clean water makes in the lives of families. I’m hoping that many will join me once again to expand the reach of clean water, and literally save lives millions of miles away.
