Keeping Fort Wayne Warm
Just had to share this great video that NeighborLink Fort Wayne produced. It really shows what they’re about and where the money we raised in 2019 went. It was great to see that our funds were both heartwarming and home-warming! We’ve begun our campaign for them already. If you’d like to contribute, please visitContinue reading “Keeping Fort Wayne Warm”
Meet Your 2020 Runners Doing Good!
The last 5 years have been a true blessing. From barely dreaming about raising $1,000 to looking at hitting $25,000 within the next $500 raised, it’s been crazy to think about and at the core of all of this has been the people. We’ve just had a great group of people. Many I’ve met forContinue reading “Meet Your 2020 Runners Doing Good!”
This Is What It Is About!
When we first made the decision to partner with NeighborLink Fort Wayne , it wasn’t an easy decision. We’d been running to benefit a local children’s charity for 3 years, having run 4 long distance relay races to benefit them and had raised approximately $17,000 for them. We started slowly but every year builtContinue reading “This Is What It Is About!”
Runners Doing Good to Again Run to Benefit NeighborLink Fort Wayne
While we work to formally organize the team as a non-profit entity, it would be easy to say that we should take ’20 off, at least until everything is set because it’d be easier, but when you’ve built a reputation based on running 200 mile relay races, stepping away from a challenge isn’t an option.Continue reading “Runners Doing Good to Again Run to Benefit NeighborLink Fort Wayne”
A Year of Thanks
“The New Year stands before us, like a chapter in a book, waiting to be written.” — Melody Beattie As the final hours of 2019 wind down, it is fitting to reflect on it. Not everything was or is ever perfect but there’s always something for which thanks is warranted. Here’s a quick list ofContinue reading “A Year of Thanks”
2020’s Vision, Part II
As highlighted in Part I one of the goals was to have a race calendar so that 2020’s effort isn’t confined to 1 major event and anything else in the area is training for it. In our effort to better connect with the Fort Wayne area running community, we’re committed to making our miles countContinue reading “2020’s Vision, Part II”
2020’s Vision
“Never limit your vision based on your current resources” — Michael Hyatt That quote couldn’t ring more true right now. Currently, as a team, we have approximately $29.48 to our name as a result of the 13 Runners Doing Good wristbands that we’ve sold so far. Yes, we’ve covered our upfront costs on that investmentContinue reading “2020’s Vision”
A Runner Looks at 40
I’m not there yet but tomorrow’s my birthday and as my wife like’s to remind me, it’s a big one because it’s the last of my 30’s. She makes me laugh. I had one coworker this week tell me that 39 was his worst birthday and he freaked out and bought a mustang. I’m prettyContinue reading “A Runner Looks at 40”
On Daring Greatly
“The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly … who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly” – Teddy Roosevelt I went through a leadership training course this past year and the aboveContinue reading “On Daring Greatly”
