A Hard 5 Mile Tempo Run That Fell Off The Rails

ByTim Nolte August 24, 2021August 24, 2021

Well, my attempted tempo run kind of fell flat. Let’s just say that regardless of how tired I was yesterday morning I shouldn’t have let the Friday race allow me to think that I would be OK with not getting my Monday 4 miles in. I’m sure not going to be skipping my Thursday run otherwise I’ll probably finish terribly come the Friday race. #HWI #KCC #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRHalfMarathon #RiverBankRun

Tackling A Winter Interval Run

ByTim Nolte December 12, 2019

Trying to do interval training runs in the cold winter months can be challenging. Even with the right gear which I highly recommend, you have to be careful so you don’t end up taking a dive. Snow and ice can make speed a definite challenge when attempting faster interval runs. When it comes to winter running some dates you just need go with the flow. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRGus Help With Clean Water: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr

Fixing OpenLiteSpeed Caching for ActivityPub on WordPress

ByTim Nolte April 9, 2023March 10, 2024 Updated onMarch 10, 2024

After some conversation with others on #Mastodon about other caching issues with #ActivityPub & #WordPress it was revealed that it came down to the Accept headers being received by requests to the caching services. The caching services could be things like #Cloudflare or web servers such as #OpenLiteSpeed, or even WordPress caching plugins. In my case I use the OpenLiteSpeed web server caching and I started digging into how caching works in OpenLiteSpeed and how I could fix it for my WordPress site.

Warm Weather Means Running Outside

ByTim Nolte January 19, 2017January 19, 2017

Had a great morning run OUTSIDE today. Felt great to be outside again. I can tell that my body is allowed to more naturally be in control of the pace I’m running at any given point. I do think the treadmill running has helped my outside run today. Got a personal best on 3miles, woot! [endomondowp type=’workout’ workout_id=’860773514′]

An “Easy” 5 Mile Recovery Training Run

ByTim Nolte September 17, 2018

Decided to hit some of what used to be a pretty regular route for me. I still tweaked it a bit though. Today was supposed to be an “easy” run but it was more of a “comfortable” run for me, basically if I was comfortable running a sub-8 minutes per mile then that is what I ran. Perhaps it could be considered a fartlek run I guess. However, with my typically inconsistent running pace ever run I do could be considered a fartlek run. Ha. I did also enjoy a shorter run listening to a worship music running set. I wish there were more of those with some more recent music. I spent some time thinking about my former ministry cohort John Martinson and his…

Painting Instead of Programming

ByTim Nolte August 24, 2024August 25, 2024 Updated onAugust 25, 2024

Since I’ve taken up the hobby of 3D printing, and as a result have gotten into playing the One Page Rules wargaming system, I also decided to give a go at painting miniatures.

Back At The 5K Training

ByTim Nolte March 9, 2017March 9, 2017

I got back outside and returned to using Endomondo for my 5k training. Today’s training had 10 very fast intervals which really seemed to kick my butt by the last couple but I made it through. I did have a personal best for a 5K which was awesome given I’ve been out of it for a week. Was glad to be outside and back into the running routine.
