Nice to Have Some Cooler Running Weather Again to Kick Off The Week

ByTim Nolte

Any morning I get up and get some miles in is a success, today was especially one of those. It was a rough night with not very good sleep, and I was tempted to just go back to bed to get some more rest. After last week’s hard training runs, including skipping my Monday run, I didn’t want to see a repeat. It was slow to get out the door but I did, and to my surprise it was cooler than is had been. Needless to say, I not only got my run in, I also got my best time for a 4 mile run in awhile.

Running can’t be just about hitting PRs, or running your fastest race. We all get older, and in time, we aren’t going to be getting any faster, we’ll only be getting slower. At some point we might be able to maintain a specific speed for awhile, but eventually our bodies will have had enough. When running becomes more about making a difference in the world, and impacting others, it doesn’t matter how far or fast you run but the message of hope that you share with others.

    Virtual 5K Group Run For Clean Water

    ByTim Nolte
    Yesterday, was the #HWI annual 5K group run, though this year it was “virtual” since we can’t gather yet. It’s definitely not the same to just gather for a video call and then run on your own. Missing hearing the bells ring as I cross the finish line. Looking forward to the day when we…

    First Ice Beard Of The Winter

    ByTim Nolte
    Despite the stormy winter weather I was able to make some decent time. Having cleats that go over my running shoes is a huge help with any sort of snow and ice I encounter. The real problem was having my running glasses getting fogged up so often from the cold wind. I enjoyed some worship…
