If you can dream it, you can do it. Always remember that this whole thing started off with a dream and a mouse. — Walt Disney Through the rest of the year, I will occasionally write about what has inspired me to change course and aim for something bigger with the running team. We haveContinue reading “The Inspiration For Change, Part I”

The Rock: Bring Everyone With You
I saw this today and while this isn’t really a running related video clip, I love the message and couldn’t help but share a few thoughts on it and how I feel it relates to what RNW and I are doing. I share this because there’s a lot of negativity in the world and ifContinue reading “The Rock: Bring Everyone With You”
Back on the Right Path!
The last week or so, I’ve had been thinking about a lot about the direction of Runnin’ Not Walken and Runners Doing Good. This November will be the anniversary of the first year of the blog and we’re less than 6 months from the 5th anniversary of the running team being founded. A lot ofContinue reading “Back on the Right Path!”
Run-Gooder #5 – Matt
#Repost! – Matt’s been a big part of our team since he joined last year. As we roll out who is on Team Runnin’ Not Walken for ’19, we will feature those profiles here and since we already have a mention of Matt here, I thought it was a great time to share this blogContinue reading “Run-Gooder #5 – Matt”
On Motivation
My friends, we are not the sum of our possessions. They are not the measure of our lives. In our hearts we know what matters. We cannot hope only to leave our children a bigger car, a bigger bank account. We must hope to give them a sense of what it means to be aContinue reading “On Motivation”
Sunday Inspiration #3 – Ride for Roz
Admittedly, I’m late to the game here. The Chive and Chive Charities have been around awhile now but over the last year or so I’ve really noticed the work they’re doing. They cover a wide range of things. Growing up in Fort Wayne, IN and having gone to Bishop Dwenger High School….I should have knownContinue reading “Sunday Inspiration #3 – Ride for Roz”
Sunday Inspiration #2 – Jon Dorenbos
Sticking with the theme of a weekly inspirational story or person, not necessarily running related, this week, I’ve chosen Jon Dorenbos. If you’ve not heard of Jon, you might want to get caught up because this guy is on a rocket ship right now and he’s only going to get bigger. That’s a good thingContinue reading “Sunday Inspiration #2 – Jon Dorenbos”
Reflection Friday…
It does not matter how slowly you go, as long as you do not stop – Confucius Happy Friday! Today is January 25th and the first month of the year is almost in the books. It is remarkable how quickly time flies nowadays. As we bring this month to a close, or anything for thatContinue reading “Reflection Friday…”
Run-Gooder #8 – Amanda
“If it doesn’t challenge you, it won’t change you.” – Fred DeVito After corresponding and finally getting to meet her, the above quote made me think of her. Matt’s better half joined Runnin’ Not Walken this past year and she was a great addition to the team and I believe, qualifies as a Run-Gooder, especiallyContinue reading “Run-Gooder #8 – Amanda”
Run-Gooder #1 – Jennifer
“It’s not how much we give, but how much love we put into giving” – St. Mother Teresa The following is a republishing of our first Run-Gooder, Jenn from back in early November when we were just starting out and maybe some didn’t see it originally. I hope you enjoy it! What is aContinue reading “Run-Gooder #1 – Jennifer”
