Walk, Run, Soar: A 52-Week Running Devotional, (Paperback)

As one who has been running marathons for over 40 years, I found the book extremely helpful on many levels. First, I have always been one to memorize and meditate on Bible verses while I run, and the devotionals and verses in the book fit right in with that process. Running and living the Christian life seem to be remarkably similar as evidenced by the many running related verses in the Bible, and its great how the authors develop that intersection. Secondly, I have coached running for over 25 years and found that Coach Shawns suggestions get right to the point and are right on target. So, get this book and be better prepared to run your race both physically and spiritually.

This is an excellent resource for walkers, runners and those who want to get started being more active. The devotions offer encouragement, perspective and inspiration to draw closer to God and to appreciate the beauty of His creation. There are coaching tips at the end of each devotional and some great bonus resources (info. on how to form a running group, warm-up drills for runners, training plans and mileage charts) located in the appendix.
