As Christians we are called to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ. If you are anything like me, this is an extremely difficult thing to do. There just never seems to be a good time to broach the subject. To be honest, I am afraid of the awkwardness this discussion might cause.

Running has torn down the awkwardness and created a platform for me to talk freely about my faith. It is my hope that these stories will help draw you closer to our creator – through whom we all have the strength to move mountains.

God has given me a body built for endurance. Over the years, I have run a few races and met many wonderful and interesting people. These posts contain my stories. You do not need to be a runner to relate to these events. We are all running the race of life. We all have our peaks and valleys that we have to climb and descend.

100.27 Training Miles for Week (3/28 - 4/3)

We are exactly one month away from the McNaughton Park in Vermont 200 mile race (http://www.peakraces.com/mcnaughton). As of today, there are officially 16 runners signed up for the 30 mile event, 34 runners signed up for the 100 mile event, 5 runners signed up for the 150 mile event, and 12 runners signed up for the 200 mile event.

This was a recovery week for me with a peak daily mileage of 18.32 miles. Have averaged 98.04 miles/week for the last 9 weeks and 12.25 miles/day through 2010 thus far. Ran 481.92 miles in March.

This week's photo is from the 2002 FoxCities Marathon. I was one of "those people" that would carry their kids across the finish line. That is my oldest son Chase who is now 8 years old!
