80 Degree Morning Run With The Blessing of Water

ByTim Nolte

Sporting the Slip n Slide 5K shirt on my training run this morning. It was a hot one at 5am, I can’t imagine doing my run later today. Running in the heat took me back to our short 3 mile run in Freetown and remembering for those in need. I was blessed to have 2 fresh bottles of water available to me while I ran. That is a luxury not found by many in Sierra Leone.

This results in either no education, or very little. Bringing more clean water to Africa means a better future for the…

    Today’s speed work kicked my butt indeed. I got a Garmin 5K PR though, so I can’t complain, plus I did manage to get up early and get out for a run. #HWI #Run4Water #GroundhogMarathon

    Virtual 5K Group Run For Clean Water

    ByTim Nolte
    Yesterday, was the #HWI annual 5K group run, though this year it was “virtual” since we can’t gather yet. It’s definitely not the same to just gather for a video call and then run on your own. Missing hearing the bells ring as I cross the finish line. Looking forward to the day when we…
