A Nice Cool Morning For A 4 Mile Training Run

ByTim Nolte August 16, 2021August 16, 2021

It was a very nice cool morning to start off the week. I was even able to come in under a 10 minute/mile pace without feeling like I was struggling. Looking forward to the week ahead. #HWI #KCC #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRHalfMarathon #RiverBankRun

I Told My Wife I Was Just Going For A Short Run
ByTim Nolte April 25, 2019
So my distance terminology might just be a little wacky. When I told my wife that I was just going for a short run tonight she asked if I was running to the end of the street, which of course I responded with no I was just running 5 miles. She laughed. The other day on a work call I mentioned only running between 6-9 miles in the mornings, which got some puzzling responses as well. Having tackled 3 marathons, and putting in hundreds of training miles, I can say that I’m officially a long distance runner. Today was a little bit of an off day since I ran in the evening. I’ve been managing a cold all week and not letting myself get enough…

Tackling The Saturday Morning Training Run
ByTim Nolte April 20, 2019April 20, 2019
I was on the fence about going out this morning. I didn’t get a great night of sleep, and I woke up with a sore throat, so I was concerned whether doing 13 miles was a good idea. Once I actually got going things were good for the first 10 miles, it got a a little harder but I just stayed focused getting to the end and worried less about my pace. I enjoyed catching my longtime running partner, and his co-worker, as I passed by be his house on my run. Nice to have some encouragement along the way. I had a tough time after my run with my recovery. Helps to have home projects that needed my attention and to keep me going….

Every step we take to as #HWI is another step closer to more clean water for those in need. #KCC #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRHalfMarathon #RiverBankRun

5K Number 5… Feeling Great!
ByTim Nolte January 17, 2017February 6, 2017 Updated onFebruary 6, 2017
I was pretty frustrated with my pace after yesterday’s run. I had a ton of support and encouragement from the HWP Team and I was super excited to see my results today. I paid close attention to what I was doing today, as compared to the previous day, and made adjustments and I saw the difference. Now I need to just stay the course with my consistency and see where it leads me. 🙂 [endomondowp type=’workout’ workout_id=’859898904′ ] Pro Gym, Jenison, Michigan

Running Goals & Purpose
ByTim Nolte April 14, 2017
When I start talking with people about my running there is always the question of why I’m running and what my goals are. I’ll be honest that running just kind of happened. Don’t misunderstand, running wasn’t an accident, but rather came out of inspiration from my wife and the fact that a team of runners formed at my church. I wasn’t involved in the Hope Water Team raising money for well in Africa this past year, but do intend on helping this year. When I started running as a way to lose weight, about 115lbs in the past year, it was pretty much because it was the easiest thing for me to find time to do. It is becoming more than that for me. It…
