Not A PR But Beating My Last 5 Mile Run is Still A Win

ByTim Nolte

My goal for today was to simply do better than my last 5 Mile run, from last Tuesday. Given how much of a struggle I had last week I was pretty hopeful that I could make that happen. I was also hoping for a sub-10 minute/mile pace. I accomplished both which was hard but it felt great also.

Ultimately my goal is always just to finish. Whether I find myself having to take some running breaks, or struggling against heat and humidity, in the end it’s all about finishing. When I comes to putting in a well and bringing clean water to Africa it doesn’t matter what it takes to get those wells in but that we can get them in and bring a change, and a new life, to those in desperate need.

    Putting In Some Miles On A Crisp Tuesday Morning

    ByTim Nolte
    This morning I opted to run without the cleats, since I could see that the sidewalks looked to be mostly cleared. Unless there is snow covering the sidewalks the cleats just don’t feel very comfortable to run in. It was a nice easy run, listening to some worship workout music: Christian Workout – 50 Best…

    Keeping The Trots At Bay

    ByTim Nolte
    This morning the wheels pretty much fell off my 6.5 mile run. As you can see I really only got a little more than 4 miles in. I had to stop because I just couldn’t keep jostling things around and keep the trots from hitting me. I did manage to get another really slow 1.5…
