Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize. 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (NIV) I am a Christian a Husband, a Father, and of course a Marathon runner. What more could anyone ask?

Sometimes your good, Sometimes your real good!


Nailed it people. I passed my best time by nearly 15 minutes. My smile was completly genuine as I crossed the fnish line and looked at my watch. I'm happy. The race itself was awesome. The course was flat every couple of miles there was a band senic route. The only problem is when you get water people get to the side drinkers on either side so those of us who don't want any can run in the middle. Learn the necessary protical please. The weather was a bit warmer than we expected low 70's at the finish. So the sweatshirt did not last long.

Oh I almost forgot I met Frank Shorter.


Ok all I am happy. I will be taking a few days off to completly recover then I will begin posting again at my usual unpredictable way.
