Friday Impromptu Race

Hope Network 1-in-5 Marathon HWI Relay Team

On Friday, June 7th, I had the opportunity to join a group of Team members as part of a marathon relay team. I was chosen to bring the team home running the last 6.2 mile(10K) of the relay. It was a tough run for me as my phone/watch wouldn’t work, other than music through my headphones, so I had no idea what my pacing was and no timer to keep me hydrated regularly like I’m used to. I felt like I was sort of running blind. When I saw the results tonight I was pleasantly surprised to see that I came in around the time/pace that I had hoped based on a training run I did earlier in the week. It was a tough run but happy to know that I was able to trust my training and run a solid race blind.

    Just A Short Test Run

    ByTim Nolte
    Today, was a fitness level test run, 5 minute warm-up/cool down and 12 minutes of high intensity running. The intensity of these runs make it hard to think about much, though I still enjoyed the worship workout music. There are 2 albums that I typically rotate between. https://play.google.com/music/m/Byaqvq4noj2wsy5bnnjrd7gxlxy?t=50_Christian_Running_Cardio_Workout_-_CWH https://play.google.com/music/m/Bu5tpzv5jynip3tjpxndsh7t56m?t=Christian_Workout_50_Best_Music_Hits_Running_Cardio_-_Christian_Workout_Hits_Group These are my go-to music selection for running. I enjoy having some worship time during my runs to help me start off with God. #RiverBankRun

    12 Minute Fitness Level Test Run On A Brisk Fall Morning

    ByTim Nolte Updated on
    While we all have been impacted by this pandemic the biggest impact is on those that were already struggling. We can’t let the pandemic keep us from continuing to help those in need. We just have to find safe ways of doing that. Despite the pandemic there is still a great need for water, so I continue to run. #HWI #Run4Water #RiverBankRun Give to clean water: https://timn.me/2020HWI I was surprised to see an evaluation run come up so early in the training plan. I didn’t take a good look at the overall plan initially so I’ll have a hard time gauging what adjustments will have been made to my plan. So far the easy runs have been way slower than in used to, and I’ve…

    An Easy Saturday “Long Run” To Finish Out The Week

    ByTim Nolte Updated on
    I got out for a long overdue Saturday run, a “long run” as the training plan classified it. As expected, since it was a timed run I got more distance in than what was called for since pace is always a challenge for me. I still only got 3 runs in this week since my alarm didn’t get set on Thanksgiving day to get a short run in. #HWI #Run4Water #RiverBankRun #RBR At around 26°F it was a pretty crisp and frosty morning. I don’t think I had quite enough layers on but that kept me pretty motivated to keep up the pace to keep warm. That’s one aspect of winter running that I don’t think people really considering about winter running. With the temperatures…

    Day Camp in Kathirie, Celebration And Sharing The Love

    ByTim Nolte
    Today started off a little bit slower. There was a little bit of a communication problem with breakfast but it all worked out with plenty of time before our World Hope transportation arrived. Terry and I actually had a little time to chat with some of the hotel staff after breakfast during and after the butchering of our goat. Yes, Terry and I got to see them butchering “litte Ron” as some of us liked to call him. We explained a little bit about Hope Water International and the partnership with World Hope. Once our rides arrived we loaded up and headed to the office to meet up with some World Hope staff that would be joining us for the day in Katherie. Once things…
