WOW! What an amazing weekend. There are so many people to thank but let's start with God for making this all possible. Thank you to the following: Steve, Amy and Abby Miles, All of the runners(too many to name but you are all loved and appreciated). The Ronald McDonald House of Ann Arbor for all of your support and a nice breakfast. Joe and Jesse for the "Fireworks," or the downed power line that started a fire, that was cool entertainment. The parents of the Saranac CC team for trusting us to have your kids run with us, they were amazing. Pastor Tom of The Church of Christ for your hospitality. The lady and her son at the Funeral Home for the popsicles. Wzzm 13 and The Grand Rapids Press for covering the story. Cornerstone United Methodist Church for being you, we are blessed to call you our church home and we hope to see all of our runners there some day. All of the friends and family who supported us on this journey, and thank you to my wife Abby for loving me and supporting me no matter what.
I lost my love for running but was reminded of why I love it when I saw how much you all love it. I look forward to seeing you on the road. I am always looking for company so let's do it.

My Story
My journey has taken me from a life of anger and self pity to a life full of hope and renewel. I have experienced the loss of my older Brother an my Mom all in about the course of a year, starting in 2007 with my brother. In the middle of this at the age of 25 I had back surgery, something that would result in me slipping into deeper depression and anger. In the fall of 2008 I was finally strong enough to let go. I had to let go of myself and my control so Jesus Christ could finally have what He deserves, my cooperation. Since I learned how to listen to Jesus my life has been something worth living for. I learned how to be a leader in my family, a loving husband, and a father. God put some people in my life that made this journey a little easier for me. Chris, Ken, Howard, Tom, and Joe asked me to run with them on saturday mornings. Little did I know this would turn into a 200 mile relay race, multiple 5k races (I broke my 20 min. goal on my Mom's one year of passing with a 19:39 time), and my first full marathon in September of 2009. That's where the idea for running from Ann Arbor was born.
