"The only person you have to inspire each day is yourself. Running will do that". Tonight we tried a little speed. Pushed the pace a little. Whenever I bring out the Skechers GoRun Speed Elites you know the pace will be fast. Did a quick 6 before iftar today. Time to add some speed work back into my training. What's your favorite speed training workout? I love this life! (at Ras al Khaima) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc6mvtgIZ_T/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"Running is not just about the legs. Its about the heart and the mind. They all work together in harmony". Just an easy 5K before iftar today. I don't know if it is the new clothes or shoes, but my runs have become much easier. Thank you @skechersconnect for keeping me outfitted with the best gear. I love this life!

"Strength isn't revealed until it is tested". Out for a quick and easy 4K before iftar (breaking my fast) today. Everyday and ever run I feel stronger. I hope to be back to racing maybe by this summer. Time to see what I can do in an official race.

"Goals should never be easy. They should force you to work, even if the are uncomfortable sonetimes". Trying to regain my running rhythm. Got in a nice 7K before ending my fast today. I was focusing on keeping a nice steady pace. Now, time to eat. Only 12 more days. Time is really going fast.

"Running fast or far is should not be forced. You have to relax and let the run come out of you". Some of my best runs happen when I just relax and run. I don't look at the pace I just listen to my body. Had time for a quick 5K at lunch today. These days have been going very fast lately. Summer will be here soon. Now a quick lunch and back to work. I love this life! (at Al Jazirah al Hamra') https://www.instagram.com/p/CbsDaNkNhN7/?utm_medium=tumblr

"Every day you have an opportunity to improve. Every run you can work to be better. Not just physically, but mentally". Out on the roads for a little lunch time fun. Got on nice 7K to start the work week. Ramadan will be starting in a few days. Trying to decide what my challenge will be this year. I love this life!

"Success in running means leaving your comfort zone and learning to love your discomfort zone". What happens when a race horse gets new shoes? They always run faster. Trying out my new GoRun Razor Excess trainers on my run today. Did a fast 5K for lunch. Skechers never disappoints. Always comfortable from the box to the road. Can't wait to try them on some longer runs. Thank you @skechers and @skechersconnect for keeping me on the roads. I love this life!

"It's in great times of uncertainty where our faith strengthens the most". When the world is uncertain, go with the constants that bring your joy. I put in a little work at lunch to clear my head and refocus. Got on a nice 8K for lunch. Felt good to get out and clear my mind. Now, back to work to end this crazy week. I love this life!

"Failure will not overcome me as long as my will to succeed is stronger". Putting in a little work at lunch. Knocked out a quick 6K in this amazing weather. I always enjoy the waves and thumbs ups I get from drivers as they pass by. Even if they are not runners, they encourage you to keep going. I love this life!

"Some days you have good runs. Some days your runs are not so good. The goal is to keep going. Never give up". Today was one of those bad days. Struggled to only do 3K.
