Running In The Heat, And A Johnny On The Way

Some may ask, after a few years of raising money for wells, “why more wells?”. What most don’t even think about is both the pros and the cons of a new well in a village. You may be surprised to even think that there could be a downside to a new well in a village. A new well not only provides for a village but now there are those outside the village they will come because the water source is closer. Some may even relocate to a village because there is a new water source that is readily available. So the reality of it is that the more wells there are for people the less strain there will be on a village, in more ways than one.

It was a challenging morning between the heat and getting half way through my run before a stomach issue. Fortunately, I found a porta-john on my running route.

    Another Monday Run In The Books

    I really don’t have much to say about this mornings’ run. I had a solid pace and stayed around my target heart rate. It was a pretty crisp morning but by the half way point I was warned up & trucking along nicely. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #RiverBankRun
