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.

Twitter Link for 24 Hour Race Labor Day Weekend

The following link will take you to the twitter feed that we will be updating from 8 AM Central Saturday, September 3 until 8 AM Central Sunday, September 4 as I attempt to run over 145 miles in 24 hours:

Again, I will not be attempting this race alone and have a great crew coming to support me each and every 400 meter lap around a high school track in Germantown, Wisconsin (outside of Milwaukee).

The image below was taken at the end of the 24 hour race last year. You can see a lot of my crew in the background - it was a long day for all of us. We will be attempting to run 20 more miles this year in the same amount of time. Please pray for us and send us tweets during the event. My crew leader Demah will pass each and everyone on to me. I will greatly appreciate the extra motivation - especially during the night Saturday.
