Being Prepared For Parenting

ByTim Nolte April 13, 2018

As much as I’d like to think that I was ready to parent the fact is that I owe a lot to my wife. If it wasn’t for my wife’s knowledge and experience my kids wouldn’t have had the experiences they have had so far. I’m still learning everyday day how to be a better parent.

I can’t say that I feel like the runs are progressively getting easier. In some ways it feels like every run is getting harder. #5K #training #perseverance

Being Thankful For My Health, And Focusing On Others
ByTim Nolte May 28, 2019
This morning I got myself to a place where I could honestly see that I was letting myself get wrapped up in my own pity party. I was losing sight of the opportunity to be thankful for my health and be focusing on those less fortunate. The big question came to mind of why I am running. Am I running for myself? Are my runs all about how far or fast I can run? It seems pretty obvious that I got myself far from where I should be. I turned things around this morning and spent some time in praise for how God has blessed me, and especially spent time lifting friends and family up in prayer that have bigger needs than me. #HWI #WhyIRun

Changing Focus And Changing Pace
ByTim Nolte July 31, 2018
I expected to have a better overall average time given my training plan had me doing high intensity sprints. It’s OK though as my times were faster than my plan actually called for. The 2nd half of my run was really a little bit of a wake up call on where my focus has been lately. Life has been more about me lately and I’ve been missing, or straight up ignoring the needs of people around me. I may be a bit hard on myself but I’m one that always feels called to do better and not let myself just coast through life. Christ is the model of how even though we may be working on our personal calling our focus needs to be on…

Daily Thoughts
Start Out Another Week…
ByTim Nolte April 10, 2006
Well, as it would happen I’m actually getting another post in. My hope was to get back to posting daily. In a sense I sort of have been posting daily, it just happens that it hasn’t been on here. I’ve been posting daily devotional thoughts over at the Faith Shaping website. I do want to attempt to get regular weekly posts at the very least. This past weekend I had a nice visit from my parents. I invited them up for a weekend just to hang out. I was kind of hoping to give them a break from things back home too. We had a nice weekend of just hanging out and playing some games, chatting, and did more shopping than I could have guessed…

Finishing The 2018 Grand Rapids Marathon Training
ByTim Nolte October 18, 2018October 18, 2018
Last training run with my running partner before the big race on Sunday. Seems like nothing to run a couple of miles for training. It was a crisp morning that is for sure but it felt like a good prequel to the marathon day temperature. #HWI #GRMarathon #Run4Water Donate to Water – https://timn.me/2t9D4ne
