Saturday 5 Mile Long Run, Training For The Groundhog Marathon

ByTim Nolte
Ran 5.00 mi with Nike⁠ Run Club.

It was hard to get up early on a Saturday morning knowing that I could just stay in bed and no one would know or call me out on it. However, even though it took me a good 45 minutes to get out of bed and hit the run I knew that missing training runs would only lead to a more disappointing finish come February, and having the guided coaching had been a huge help.

    4th 5K…Struggling With My Progress

    Quick Lunch Break Run

    ByTim Nolte

    ByTim Nolte
    Today’s speed work kicked my butt indeed. I got a Garmin 5K PR though, so I can’t complain, plus I did manage to get up early and get out for a run. #HWI #Run4Water #GroundhogMarathon

    Wet And Uncomfortable Morning Run

    ByTim Nolte
    A bit of a wet morning, but not a downpour, so it kept things a little cooler. It was a good thing it was only just shy of 6 miles, as I needed to be able to make it home to get to the bathroom. That last mile was a bit uncomfortable. I was glad…

    First Long Run Of The New Year

    ByTim Nolte
    I’m thankful for the nice weather this evening, and for making it back safely from Minnesota, to get my long run in tonight. It was a tough one doing it at night and all alone. You don’t realize how many miles a running partner gets you through without you even feeling it until you don’t…

    Warmer Weather Means More Morning Runners

    ByTim Nolte
    Great weather for a run this morning. Starting to see a lot more runners out in the mornings now. Enjoyed another run focusing on listening to God instead of letting myself get totally consumed with the craziness of life. Counting down the days until I get on the plane to #SierraLeone #Africa with the team….
