DNF 14 Miles, Winter Won Today

ByTim Nolte

Some days you have a hard run, then there are some days where your it’s just brutal. Today the deep coat of fresh snow got the better of me.

I was even doing my best just stick with my training plan running pace of 11:01/mi, but that wasn’t enough to get me through it. After 10 miles I just need to rest, which was only 2.5 miles after I had started up again running with the Hope Water team for maybe a mile before we parted ways. It’s tough having a day like to day knowing that in 2 weeks I’m supposed to be running a marathon (26.2 miles for those that don’t know).

    Struggling Through A Solo 15 Miles Training Run

    ByTim Nolte
    It’s tough doing long training runs all by yourself, and 15 miles is no joke. I pretty much got my peak pace at around 10 miles. The final 5 miles was quite a struggle at times, and my lap pace times reflected it. It’s hard to imagine that I’m going to need to go another…
