Hebrews 12:1 – Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
I’m really not sure of all the reasons why I ran my fastest [...]

Cold and breezy. That would be a good description of the 2008 Olathe Marathon. We fought the ESE 20-25 mph wind for probably 18 miles of the 26.2 mile course. While temps were in the mid-30s at start time, windchills were 10 to 12 degrees colder with “feel-like” temperatures around 23 degrees F. Regardless of [...]

Going through the Plaza area at about mile 8, I was engaging the crowds and having fun! One runner I passed said, “I want what he’s on!” I turned and said with a smile, “His name is Jesus and in His presence is fullness of joy!”
The preceding anecdote was very typical of the type of [...]
