Post Thanksgiving Long Run

ByTim Nolte
Running | Distance: 7.97 miles, Time: 1:30:05, Pace: 11:18 min/mile

So I didn’t manage to get my run in on Thanksgiving day, we had a very early morning and by the time the kids were in bed it was getting late and I just didn’t feel up to an hour long run that late at night. I still had to get up early enough this morning to get my long run in before things started for the day, but I did get out and get it done.

The biggest struggle on this run was the constant urge of needing to use the restroom, and now that it’s just about winter the porta-johns have all but been put away from some of my running routes. I managed the run well enough despite it.

    It was a tough go of it this morning tackling the ice mounds left behind by the snow plows. Winter running is not the time to be working on speed that is for sure. Many times I had to take to running on the snow covered grassy areas in order not to trip and fall….

    Praying For Rain And Wells In Sierra Leone

    ByTim Nolte
    As I felt the light rain coming down as I ran I couldn’t help but think of #SierraLeone and the long drive season they, putting a strain on water supplies. I especially thought of the village of #Ronkorhun and their struggles for water. I continue to pray for the rains needed to grow their crops…
