Losing the Motivation to Run #WhyIRan

ByTim Nolte

It’s rather frustrating how far I’ve fallen in my running from where I was just a couple of years ago. I’m pretty sure a large portion of it is because I’ve lost a lot of what kept me motivated. I don’t think it was ever really about just the running. It was about the and the . Without those two things happening for me right now there is just not a lot of motivation to keep pushing myself.

This year I need to find my way back to community and purpose for running. I’m not quite sure what that is going to look like but I know that is a huge think that took a toll because of and now I need to get past that.

Fighting For Integrity

ByTim Nolte
We aren’t born with a heart of integrity, and if we want it, we have to fight for it. – A Life Of Integrity In a world filled with concern for only ones self, and the drive for success, integrity is always being challenged. It isn’t as simple as just making the good choice, we have have to stand against an entire world that apposes us. To fight also means to surround ourselves with people who are always watching and holding us accountable. – A Life Of Integrity We can’t make it through this world as a Christ follower on our own, let alone maintain integrity. We all need partners to do life with and keep us accountable to living a life of integrity. We…

Doing The Long Winter Run

ByTim Nolte
Got in good long run in this morning, with the help of my running partner. I was thankful to not have to do the whole 18 miles alone. It felt good to know that even in the winter I can do that long of a run. The last couple of miles was a push, but I was also about out of water, so that didn’t help matters. Looking forward to more winter runs in the future. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus

Prequel To The Groundhog Day Marathon?

ByTim Nolte
It was a tough run this morning the snow covered sidewalks and pathways really took their tole the further I got into my run. On top of that my CamelBak nozzle froze up and couldn’t get any water for a good portion of the second half of my run. What was supposed to be a 17 mile run ended up being only a 15 mile run. I had my mask on to help cover my face from the wind, which I’m so thankful I had decided to that otherwise my face probably would have been frozen. There is no telling what the weather is going to be like come February 2nd, for the Groundhog Day Marathon. After today’s experience I’m a little more concerned about…

A Wet Thursday For Speed Work

ByTim Nolte
Today was a speed work day, and so it goes with those my mind was pretty much totally focused on my run and hitting the target paces. I did still have the worship music going so I was at least still able to connect with God that way. Even though it was a wet run it did help to keep me cool, especially on the intense intervals. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon Donate to Clean Water: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr Hudsonville, MI
