I literally walked and ran through the month of September (2025), with a focus on my 9th “fast,” preparing for the next 5 K I would run (October 11); it was my second ever to run with the first one in May of this year. As I increased my workouts, my confidence grew. I was … Continue reading A Heart Committed to Falling into Line! (finalizing a September fast)

Why a September Fast!
This September 2026 will be my tenth September Fast since I began in 2017.
