Race Pace Training Run

ByTim Nolte

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 saying I didn’t enjoy it, but these sorts of training runs get me off the focus of why I’m running to begin with.

    Feeling Like An Intense 5K Run

    ByTim Nolte
    As I hit the pavement this morning I felt like just kicking into high gear for the entire run. I’m not quite sure that it was an overall lifetime #PR for a #5K but I’m pretty sure I finished better than more recent 5K times. What’s crazy is that it wasn’t like I had gotten…

    Easy? Monday 10K

    ByTim Nolte
    As I listened to the worship music play I prayed for the #HWI Team’s training and races, as well as for the people of Sierra Leone, that God would provide exactly what they each needed. #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon
