I Couldn’t Run a Quarter Mile — Then I Tried 100 Miles

Two years ago, I couldn’t run a quarter mile. I was 52 years old, overweight, and completely out of shape. One short run with my son exposed a truth I could no longer ignore—and everything changed from there. This is the story of how I went from being unable to run a quarter mile… to attempting one of the hardest endurance challenges in the world: running 100 miles. This film isn’t about running. It’s about facing reality. Doing hard things. And becoming the person you were called to be. Along the way, things went wrong. There were moments I wanted to quit. Moments where my body shut down. Moments where the only way forward was through. But this story isn’t just mine. It’s about family and faith. And the people who refuse to let you quit when it would be easier to stop. If you’re feeling stuck in life—physically, mentally, or spiritually—I hope this reminds you of something simple but powerful: You’re not too old. You’re not too far gone. And it’s not too late. Take the first step.
