Managing A Late Start Interval Run

ByTim Nolte

This morning had an off start. After waking up and looking at the time I realized I had forgot to change my alarm the night before and I had woken up an hour late. I tried to get myself out the door as soon as I could but I knew there was no way I was going to get the 8-9 miles in that my training plan called for. On top of that it was an interval training run. I decided to just follow the intervals but cut the run short in order to get back home at a decent time. I did manage to get just shy of miles in, even though I had some tough going intervals. When you throw the major wind resistance and the crazy April snow, the conditions were less than ideal. Despite the challenges I got a decent run in.

    Doing An Intense Training Evaluation Run On A Foggy Thursday Morning

    ByTim Nolte
    It was a pretty cool morning which attributed to the dense fog but the temperature was nice for a run. I’m planning on sticking with my 25K training plan until the time the #RiverBankRun was supposed to take place. The need for clean water hasn’t come to an end. #HWI #WhyIRun #Run4Water Give to clean water in Africa: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr With so many other changes happening because of COVID-19 it’s good to be able to keep some things the same. I’m general our family is adjusting to the new normal, but time will tell how things go. While most are in an area where you a generally restricted to their home it’s important for everyone to still find a way to connect with others. Using video…

    Beating The Urge To Go Back To Bed

    ByTim Nolte
    A little windy this morning but it made for a nice cool run. I didn’t feel like I slept very well so it was hard to get going this morning. The thought crossed my mind a couple of times to just skip the run today and go back to bed. I couldn’t get myself to do that though. I know that once I actually get moving things turn around. Also, it’s the best time for me to get one-on-one with God with little distraction. It’s hard to believe that the #GRMarathon is only like 6 weeks away. I still have some fundraising to do for #HWI and I’d really like to get to $2000 but that will be a big challenge for sure. #Run4Water Hudsonville,…

    Intense Monday Recovery Run

    ByTim Nolte
    Give just $25, and it’ll be $50 with the current matching. $25 a day until the #GRMarathon to hit $1000. https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun Every morning I get ready to go run I turn to the sink to fill up my water. However much I feel like I need or want. For villages in Africa the choice is not that simple. We have public drinking fountains, bathrooms everywhere. Every dollar Hope Water raises helps to make water more readily available to those in need. I’m glad to say that I didn’t end up with any significant injuries from my fall on Saturday, other than some scraped up knees. I managed a pretty intensive run this morning. Everything felt great.

  • Final Training Run

    ByTim Nolte
    A day late on posting this. Better late than never, right? It’s hard to imagine that I’m only a couple of days away from the marathon. I so appreciate this guy training with me these past many weeks. Looking forward to hitting the next milestone and crossing the finish line together.
