God, the Ultimate Endurance Athlete

Faith & Athletics

.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

The finish line is His why, and His finish line for us is when we surrender and declare Jesus as Lord with our mind, body, and spirit.  

In the Zone

Faith & Athletics

.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

I believe God would rather have us pray and get distracted than not pray at all.

What’s Your Why?

Faith & Athletics

.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Like any major decision in life, we look through the lens of our 3 Ps: purpose, passion, and priorities.

I Believe In You

Faith & Athletics

.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

My lack of experience or even basic know-how didn’t faze the coach. He simply said, “I believe in you. I will teach you.”

Embrace Your Impossible

Faith & Athletics

.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.

Now That’s a Bad Idea

Faith & Athletics

.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Life is lived outside your comfort zone.

One Team

Team

.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

While one might think the sport of triathlon is an individual sport, I will argue that every sport is a team sport. When I started as a triathlete, I didn’t think I’d need a team. God showed me otherwise.

Fail Forward

Faith & Athletics

.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

That’s the concept of failing forward – learning the lessons from the experience, applying those learnings, and trying again.

Live the Dream

Faith & Athletics

.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

What are your three P’s in life: your purpose, your passions, and your priorities?  If you don’t know, it’s worth carving out some time and thinking about it.
