Another month is flying by already! It has been a busy one over here and I’ve got lots to Runfess this April 2022. Let’s get right to it here are my Runfessions. Here’s what’s on my mind today. Thanks to Marcia for hosting.
April 2022 Runfessions
I Runfess…
I hit “yes please” as soon as I was offered the chance to do another round of the Wilpers Run Challenge. I participated in a beta test of the first 8 week run challenge designed by Team Wilpers (of Peloton fame) from January through March. I credit this training as helping me to propel into the best spring running season I have ever had. The team is looking to test out a few more metrics and features before offering them to the public. While I won’t be racing this summer, I plan to continue to work on some of the things that have brought me success recently. I just started again this week so stay tuned for details. So far so good,
I Runfess…
I am just the queen of beta testing! This week I am also participating in a study with Meta (ie Facebook and Instagram) looking at how creators share their content across multiple apps. It is a paid study that is looking at how creators can more easily streamline the sharing of their content across numerous apps. I figure they already have so much information on me and my habits, so why not!? Perhaps some of my answers will lead to new features. Who knows!?
I Runfess…
I could not be more excited to have our first MRTT welcome run in like forever on Sunday. We have a bunch of new members to welcome and also catch up with friends I have not seen in ages. We used to do these meetups 4-5 times a year until covid. One more step back to normalcy!
That’s about all I’ve got to Runfess today. Hope to see you next Friday for the Ultimate Coffee Date linkup.
Darlene says
That’s exciting.
You did have some great races and PRs.
Group runs are the best. I’m excited for more this summer.
Deborah Brooks says
Group runs are the best and I am lucky to have my crew
Marcia says
You had some great results with Team Wilpers the first time around and I’m sure that will continue! The Meta thing sounds interesting. Thanks for ‘fessing!
Deborah Brooks says
thanks and yes, I am excited to do round 2. The summer is usually very challenging for me with the heat so I hope this keeps me motivated
Jenny says
Yay for Team Wilpurs! I’ll be interested to hear more about the training.
Very exciting about the MRRT run- yes things are starting to feel normal again. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it!
Deborah Brooks says
I have missed our group runs and it will be nice to see everyone

I would absolutely jump at the chance to be paid to give FB feedback! I actually have a nephew who works for FB (on my husband’s side).
I’m sure that continuing on with the Wilpers Method (yes, i just made that up) is going to help whatever Fall races you choose to do!
Deborah Brooks says
I have found it interesting the questions they have asked me so far. I will keep you all posted
Kimberly Hatting says
Lots of exciting things happening! Team Wilpers really has been a great fit for you… I’d love the chance to give that a go if they have any future opportunities. Have fun!
Deborah Brooks says
I will let you know for sure. As you know, it has worked really well for me so far so I am excited to see what is next
Coco says
Very cool on the beta-testing. It would be great if Meta (I hate that name!) streamlined content sharing.
I keep (almost) forgetting about Sunday afternoon’s event. Hope to see you.
Deborah Brooks says
that is exactly what they are working on! Hopefuly my answers will help with that too. Yes, I do plan to attend the Athleta event. I should be there right around 3
Michelle says
How fun to be doing another round with Team Wilpers! Look forward to hearing more as you continue with the program.
Deborah Brooks says
Yes, me too should be fun and challenging
Kim G says
Love that you’re doing the Matt Wilpers program again. Once this is rolled out to the public, I would be interested in participating.
Deborah Brooks says
I will let you know if I hear about that happening. I assume that is their ultimate plan
Denise says
Seems like you have some exciting things happening. I’m interested in how all things work out. Keep us posted.
Deborah Brooks says
thanks! You know I will
Zenaida Arroyo says
That is exciting about Team Wilpers! I know you enjoyed it the first time so it will be better this time.
Deborah Brooks says
I hope so! thanks
