Ragnar Registration Day has been one of the most exciting days of the year for me. It bears with it the promise of adventure. It’s a feeling both exhilarating and daunting. Sometimes I find myself busting at the seams with exuberance as I’m so ready to hit the road with the teams. Each year andContinue reading “Runnin’ Not Walken Update!”

Run-Gooder #9 – Michael
It was early 2015. Team Runnin’ Not Walken had about 8 or 9 of our 12 spots filled. I reached out to Michael and his two brothers, Adam and Ryan via Facebook to see if he had an interest in joining us on this crazy Ragnar Relay adventure that we were going to be attemptingContinue reading “Run-Gooder #9 – Michael”
Thursday Thoughts
Just a couple ideas or thoughts for this Thursday, January the 17th…. Running and training in the winter is hard. Training any time is difficult but when you throw snow and 20 degrees…No Thanks! My motivation is low right now. I should be better and I was excited about running the Indy Mini is aContinue reading “Thursday Thoughts”

Runnin’ Not Walken to Run to Benefit NeighborLink Fort Wayne!!!
It is official. It was once inconceivable that we’d ever change causes of choice but sometimes in order to grow, you need to do something different and right now, I am very excited with our decision. For a second, I’d like to take a step back and explain the process. Once I made the decisionContinue reading “Runnin’ Not Walken to Run to Benefit NeighborLink Fort Wayne!!!”
Good-Bye 2018! Hello 2019! – Part 2
From a running standpoint, 2018 was in many ways a great year. It had ups and downs, naturally, but for the most part, it was a fantastic year. Runnin’ Not Walken achieved a level of fundraising that I didn’t think was possible, at least not for a long time. The support we had was remarkable. Continue reading “Good-Bye 2018! Hello 2019! – Part 2”
Run-Gooder #7 – Artie
As 2018 winds down and 2019 approaches and the blog has continued on, we’ve had a decent little following begin and it has kept me thinking of who to feature next and Artie came to mind. Has he been a lifetime runner? No, but he has been one of the biggest supporters of TeamContinue reading “Run-Gooder #7 – Artie”
Run-Gooder #6 – Michelle
So the cool thing about doing this blog is that I get to be on the look-out for inspirational people. Fortunately, there’s an abundance of them but I’m not just looking for anyone who’s remarkable, I’m looking for runners. Runners just take it up another notch and this one in particular, finds another gear. MeetContinue reading “Run-Gooder #6 – Michelle”
Run-Gooder #5 – Matt
I have known Matt since we were both in college back in the early 2000’s and worked at a Lowe’s store here in Fort Wayne. I always got along with Matt but I don’t recall a lot of details about him. He’d always been a good guy as far as I knew. Time passes andContinue reading “Run-Gooder #5 – Matt”
