@plantstoplanks: ''Run For Steem: A Couple of Takes on Summer Speed Work''

@dabeckster: ''Run for Steem - South Platte River Walk Run Walk''

^{Combining walking and running is a great workaround when the injury strikes. As @dabeckster writes: "I started tonight with a warmup walk for a little over a mile, then did a run walk for a mile and three quarters and then finished with a mile cool down walk." To add another fine element of this post: @dabeckster noticed and took a photo of a beautiful sunset in Denver!}

@romaincrx: ''Early morning run before a day of studying''

^{Morning runs are difficult and beautiful! Difficult, since for most of us it is difficult to wake up early in the morning. Beautiful, since early morning atmosphere is so unique and amazing. Just see the photo in @romaincrx's blog! 5.30 km at pace 4:43 minutes per kilometer is not an easy running training to do - well done!}

REMINDER ON HOW THE CONTEST WORKS:

Readers of the post will vote which is the Running Author of the week, who will be awarded with the part of the earnings of the same report.

• The main criteria we use in order to nominate the candidates is the Quality and Originality of the Post, but nevertheless we will try to choose also posts done by Approved Runners which visibility is low due to, either, they are newcomers to the STEEM ecosystem and to the @runningproject initiative or, also authors that have not been nominated before or have been nominated, but we feel, they should be nominated again!

• The ''Running Authors'' will be awarded with a portion of the 50% of the SBD earned on this post approximately after one week of its publication, so all of them will be rewarded but just one will be the ''Author of the week''.

• The prize will be split as follows:

      ''Author of the week'': 70% 
      ''Consolation Prize'': 30% divided among the other authors.
  

A dedicated post will be published by @runningproject announcing the winner on following Saturday.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED and BECOME an "Approved" Runner of @runningproject?

The main milestone of the @runningproject now is to get as much STEEMPOWER as possible so the UPVOTE power will be growing day by day with the entrance of new members as well as because of the reinvestment of all the curation and the majority of the earnings produced on the post published by @runningproject.

In order to get enrolled you just need to do the following steps:

1. Write a comment in this post or any other from @runningproject with a link to one of your posts about running, requesting its review.

2. After checking your post, @runningproject will decide if you are or are not an "Approved" Runner. "Low quality" post will not be considered.

3. If you are definitely an "Approved" Runner, @runningproject will reply to you asking to send 1SBD or 1STEEM as an "Enrollment Fee."

4. You will be included in the "CURATION LIST"

The initial "Enrollment Fee" is entirely used as STEEM POWER. This fee, 1 SDB/STEEM, may increase in the future depending on the number of members and Market price.
Additional donations will be also fully invested in STEEM POWER.
