Rock N Roll Marathon San Antonio
  • Had a blast this weekend. We had friends from Lubbock in for the San Antonio Rock N Roll Marathon (thanks Oglesbys! had a blast!) so the house was packed!
  • My Dad was in town too for the race.
  • I ran my worst race time ever. Nice.
  • I do have a couple of “excuses.” First, training for marathons and planting a church at the same time is TOUGH.
  • Second, I stopped to help one guy during the race that was screaming bloody murder. He keep screaming “CRAMP! CRAMP!” It took about 10 minutes for a medical team person to show up. That knocked my time down a little.
  • I was reminded once more (as I am with every marathon) that 26.2 miles is a LONG STINKING WAY to run! :)
  • Today, my legs and hips are sore like nobody’s business and I have some nasty blisters on my toes.
  • NEVER EVER run in Nikes. Sheesh.
  • Heard from my team that it was an incredible day at our Revolution Launch Team Meeting yesterday. John Atkinson spoke to the team and did an amazing job! Thanks John!
  • Huge week coming up! Hoping to have most everything prepped and ready to go for our December 13th service by the end of the week.
  • Pumped up about the holidays!
  • Looking for creative ways to serve our community for Christmas. Anyone have any good ideas?

Zac,
Congrats on the finish. It’s something few people will ever accomplish. I wanted to let you in on a service idea we’ve been using for a couple of years now. Go to a local restaurant (Denny’s, Pizza Hut, etc, anything but fast food). Take a few hundred dollars with you and buy meals for anyone in the restaurant. Have to wait staff take the table a card from you that explains that your ministry just paid for their meal and thank them for revolutionizing the community. Include your contact info on each card. Also, hand sign each card. It’s a great service to people on the margins.
Blessings!
Darin
