How Can You Run Without Water?

This morning as I did my intense interval training run the question hit me. How could there be many runners to come out of Africa when there is such a lack of easy access to water? Every morning I go out for a run I need to take water with me. I use that water plus try to stay hydrated throughout the day. In don’t know how I could manage my training runs with access to little or no water. When we have group runs, or you run in a race, there are water stations. In when the children in this photo need to go get water from the next village a few miles away, they don’t behave water stations along the way. Water for these children not only helps sustain them it radically changes there futures and the opportunities they have otherwise had without access to clean water.
