Water is Basic 5k Report

Despite the cool weather and early start time, Jenny, Brenden, and I had a fun time at the Water is Basic run on Saturday. J & B did the “one-mile” fun run, which was actually more like two miles because the turnaround point wasn’t clear. I ran-walked the 5k. Due to some knee pain, I didn’t run as much as I’d hoped, but I loved being surrounded by so many runners all doing their thing for a good cause. At church this evening we heard that nearly 500 runners participated, raising around $12,000. That’s about 4 wells, enough to provide clean drinking water for several thousand people. Praise God for technology that can save lives!
