This will be my FORTH year running for Team OLA (First as a Dad)!
I'm continuing my tradition of dedicated each mile of the marathon to a donor’s prayer request. Praying for others throughout the race made the experience so powerful—I wasn’t running alone, but with the intentions of so many in my heart.
Here’s how you can join me:
Sponsor a mile of the race (1–26): $75
Receive a picture of the baby: $25
Your support makes a real difference and helps me carry your prayers with me every step of the way!
