Day Before The Big Run, Grand Rapids Marathon 2018

ByTim Nolte

Headed down to the Grand Rapids YMCA downtown and picked up my race packet and checked out the expo. Enjoyed chatting with some folks as well as some race organizers for other marathons that take place in the Spring. Who knows maybe another marathon besides the will be in my future some day. I am signed up for the this next May, so looking forward to some winter training for that.

I’m still looking to hit that $2000 mark for wells in Africa. I have about $750 to go. There’s still time to partner with me if you haven’t yet.

I’m getting closer to my goal, only $255 to go. Partner with me today to bring clean water to another 14 people. https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon Putting in a well in a village in Africa is not about just dropping a handout to people and then moving on. A well is the start of helping a village help themselves. The responsibility of the well, and the well-being of the village, is on a team of leaders from the village. A real example of the saying, “Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and feed him for a lifetime.” It was a pretty good recovery run today. I was happy to have such a good pace after…

Nailing The Saturday Long Run

This morning I really just ran to the worship music and went at the pace that felt comfortable. I’m pretty blown away to see how much I improved my pace in just a couple of weeks, where I finished with a 9:50 min/mi pace. I think the most enjoyable part of my run this morning was just being pleasantly surprised by the next worship song. When the next song came on I just got into a zone of focusing on the music and running in time with it. I loved it. When I run in the morning it has 2 main purposes for me, the first is to have a conversation starter to make people aware of the huge need for wells in Africa, and…

6 Miles For Clean Water And A New Fundraiser For 2020

I expected to have a tough time during my training run given my tougher run the previous day, but things turned out really well. It just goes to show you that some days will be tough, yet some will be outstanding. With the new season of #HWI officially starting that also means a new fundraiser page. To kick things off I’ll be maching dollar-for-dollar the first $500 in donations. #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon #RiverBankRun Give to clean water: https://timn.me/2020HWI

Last Training Run Before The Big Day, Remembering The Cause

ByTim Nolte
Today was the last training run before the #GRMarathon on Sunday. I wanted to highlight what our team is working to accomplish. Helping communities go from a shallow hole in the ground to a reliable well that can sustain the people it serves. There is still time to partner with #HWI and help us continue to build more wells in Africa. https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr #Run4Water #WhyIRun
