4th 5K…Struggling With My Progress

ByTim Nolte January 16, 2017February 6, 2017 Updated onFebruary 6, 2017

Since I had more time today, day off today, I took an extra 4 minutes to cool down. Lost the full stats but caught my average minutes per mile to be 10. Feeling a bit frustrated with that average given that my best average to date was 9:31min/mi, just a week ago. :-/ I feel like I’m getting worse not better. Need to figure out what’s going on. Maybe I’m just expecting too much.

11 Frosty Beard Miles
ByTim Nolte January 21, 2020
Today marks the last of my longer training runs as the taper begins before marathon day. The temp this morning was in the high teens which resulted in a pretty frosty beard. I ended up pushing things a little harder than the training plan called for, but I was trying to make it back home…

Final Training Week Before The Groundhog Marathon
ByTim Nolte January 28, 2020
It was kind of strange to not have ran since last Thursday, and I always fear any sort of break is going to set my training back. Once I hit the pavement I was moving just as if I hadn’t taken a break. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus Right now the people of Sierra Leone are…

A Little Winter Storm Speed Work
ByTim Nolte March 5, 2019
It was an interesting morning given today ended up being both a winter weather advisory and a speed work training day. Not to mention getting a work call mid-run. Nothing like telling your co-worker to speak up because you are in the middle of a run. #HWI #rRn4Water #WhyIRun #RiverBankRun

I Am Blessed To Be Able To Run
ByTim Nolte October 8, 2018October 8, 2018
Short easy 5 mile training run this morning. My focus this morning was on the Jon Martinson family and the people of Sierra Leone. I can’t begin to know what it’s like to lose a spouse or parent at a young age. It’s hard to believe that a man I worked alongside for years, and…
