Running With Purpose, Grand Rapids Marathon Training

ByTim Nolte

When I started running it was about getting healthy, but once that goal had been met there needed to be more to running than just staying healthy.

Every day I get out and run is a reflection of my commitment to clean water.

    As I headed off camping with the family this weekend I was choosing what to bring to keep my phone charged. When you are a tent camping family you only have so much room. The charging pack I received for speaking at last year’s #WordCamp Grand Rapids, and the USB conversation dongle from this year…
