As many of you know, Scott is running the New York Marathon on Sunday, November 7th - one month from today. Scott is running in honor and memory of his friend Victor Ellis, a former Alabama football player who lost his life to cancer at the age of 28. With the help of many, Scott has raised 4,500 for the American Cancer Society. We are so very thankful to all who have given.
Since he started to train in May, Scott has been running non-stop -- even on the sandy beaches during summer vacation. He is now 600 miles into his training plan! I think he has covered every stretch of ground in the Homewood/Mountain Brook area.
Scott and I were able to visit the Rick and Bubba show and share Victor's story with the listeners. This was an amazing opportunity to gain tremendous support toward Scott's marathon purpose. A big "Thank you" to the Rick and Bubba family!
Visit Scott's blog to learn more about Victor and the relationship Scott shared with him.
Please pray for safe travels, happy running, and a healthy FINISH!
Hebrews 12:1-2
