A New Well Is A Celebration

ByTim Nolte August 12, 2019August 12, 2019

When visited Sierra Leone I was able to experience a village celebration of a new well. The joy and excitement that I saw made every mile I ran through #HWI worth every challenge, or pain, or struggle. #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon

2017 GR Marathon Nostalgia
ByTim Nolte August 28, 2018
This morning was a bit like reliving the 2017 #GRMarathon and that means I got home drenched. I think I did well enough pace wise despite the strong winds too. Have to train in all kinds of weather right. #HWI #Run4Water

Best Treadmill Run So Far
ByTim Nolte January 2, 2017January 2, 2017
Back home at the gym and I had my best distance yet on the treadmill. I think putting in the extra time on my parents treadmill over the holiday trip was well worth it. [endomondowp type=’workout’ workout_id=’853496010′]

Race Pace Training Run
ByTim Nolte June 9, 2018
#HWI #HessLakeRun #GRMarathon #Run4Water Only a little wet this morning but it actually felt good by keeping things cooler. Tried to keep at a race pace but as usual my pace was a bit of a roller coaster. Even with music I can’t keep it very consistent from one minute to the next. I need to work on that, but perhaps my consistent race pace is slower than I’d like it to be and that’s why I have such a hard time. I know that I was pushing the limits given how high my heart rate would get. I think maybe it’s time to put aside the training plan that is trying to get me faster and just get out and enjoy the run. Not…

Knocking Out Another Monday Training Run
ByTim Nolte April 8, 2019
I really enjoy being able to just turn on the workout worship music and just run while having one-on-one time, just me and God. This morning the Rusch family was on my mind and is in my prayers. I spent 10 years working at a Christian camp and was blessed to work with some many amazing people serving and ministering to others. I am totally blown away when I hear of the trials many of them end up going through. I do still trust in God’s truth that “in this world you will have trouble, but take heart, I have overcome the world.” I can’t even imagine what it is going to be like for the Rusch family but I know that God will be…

Tackling The Wind And The Rain
ByTim Nolte January 11, 2020
This morning was a cold, wet, and windy run to meet up with the Hope Water team. I did enjoy running with some of the team for about a mile-and-a-half before parting and finishing out my last 6.5 miles. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus The trek back home was quite a bit harder given that I was running into the wind instead of with the wind. It also didn’t help that I really had to kick things into higher gear to start to arrive by 8am to run with the team. I probably should have gotten up a little bit earlier to give myself an extra 15 minutes or so of running time. The important thing is that I made it there and finished the run….

Getting The Rest You Need Makes For A Great Run
ByTim Nolte April 15, 2020
Last night I made a point of putting the phone away and getting to bed at a decent time. This morning I had a great run. Everything in life requires balance. If things are going rough in some areas or your life then perhaps there is some other aspect of your life that is out of balance. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun
