A Rough Evening Long Run In Indiana

ByTim Nolte August 18, 2019August 18, 2019

Attempting to do a long run in the evening after a full day of activities with the family proved to be a bad idea. While I started off strong I just totally ran out of steam after a little over 14 miles. My overall average was still better than I would have thought, but that might just be for the fact that I was really going too fast to start. The unfamiliar roads, darkness, and rolling hills also didn’t help. I think the biggest thing I can say is that it is much harder doing these long runs alone. I won’t say that it can’t be done, but having the company of a fellow runner makes a huge difference. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon

Battling The Cold And Wind
ByTim Nolte December 1, 2018December 1, 2018

It’s rather frustrating how far I’ve fallen in my running from where I was just a couple of years ago.

Just Another Half Marathon For Clean Water
ByTim Nolte August 10, 2019August 10, 2019
The long training run for this day was just another 13 miles, which of course I made a half marathon by squeaking in the last 0.1 miles. On Saturdays that I don’t have early morning family commitments, or that I’m out of town, my goal is to get my miles in before the start of…

Getting Back In The Saddle After Marathon Recovery
ByTim Nolte October 29, 2019November 4, 2019
Finally got out this morning for my first run since the marathon. Doing a reverse taper, doing the training plan in reverse, as a way to ease back in. Felt great to be out there again, despite the cold and rain. #HWI

While today was a recovery run pace the miles almost doubled from last week. With only 3 weeks until race day the miles will increase for a short time but then will start decreasing weekly up to race day. #HWI #Run4Watet #WhyIRun #GRGus Give to clean water: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr
