Final Training Run In Minnesota

ByTim Nolte January 3, 2019

Final Minnesota run this morning. Got some hills in as well as a fast interval run. The temperature has been getting warmer, the feels like is now above zero. Makes for a bit more of a comfortable run when the wind gets wiping. I was trying to take some extra streets to get the miles in but still had to double back a few times. #SmallTownRunning #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus

Just Shy Of A Half Marathon Before Breakfast
ByTim Nolte May 2, 2019
This week is supposed to be the start of the training taper before the River Bank Run 25K next week. With a long interval run this morning it’s hard to think of this being a taper, but there isn’t a run scheduled for Saturday according to the plan I’m following so I guess that signifies…

Getting The Saturday Long Run Done
ByTim Nolte April 13, 2019
We all have those off days, for me today was one of those. The second half of my run was more challenging than last week. Given I PR’d for a half marathon I was surprised by today. I really can’t complain, I was supposed to be running a 9:40 min/mi pace. So in reality I…

ByTim Nolte November 27, 2019
As I was running in the rain this morning it got me thinking about the hardship that the rainy season causes for many in Sierra Leone. Like those that work for Enable The Children, the children with disabilities ministry, and those that #ETC supports. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun It’s crazy to think that something like rain,…

Running Headstrong Into The Polar Vortex
ByTim Nolte February 25, 2019
Despite the wind and snow I made pretty decent time. When I got to areas where the snow wasn’t blowing it was a pretty nice light snowfall morning. I spent some of the time praying for the members of our Sierra Leone team and for the experience we will have. Prayed for our need of…

Tackling An Intense 30 Minute Thursday Run
ByTim Nolte June 6, 2019June 6, 2019
Some days you just feel great out there running and some days you don’t. Today was the latter, but it was still intense, and I was really pushing myself. It’s days like today that I actually appreciate those hard days where it feels like you are barely moving and all you can think of is,…

Unusual Running For A Wednesday
ByTim Nolte October 31, 2018October 31, 2018
I waivered on whether to go out and run or break out the treadmill this morning. For me I figure if I’ve ran part of a marathon in a cold downpouring rain I can handle a 50 degree sprinkle for a free miles. In general I will always opt for the outdoors versus the treadmill….
