β€œTherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.”

What: 6th annual Spring100 [details below!]
When: STARTS March 20th- FINAL DAY June 21st, 2022!!
Why: for the glory of God and a good time of online fellowship with other Spring100 walkers/runners!!

The moment so many have been waiting for… 2022 SPRING100 registration is NOW OPEN!!

IT’S TIME TO SIGN UP for the 6th ANNUAL Spring100 Walking Challenge!! For those who are new to the Spring 100, this Challenge made up of a big but simple goal: to walk(or run!!) 100 miles from March 20th through June 21st(SPRING!) I am extremely excited to host this invigorating, Christ-centered challenge once again and I hope you will join those of us who have already committed to the 2022 Spring100. This 100-mile goal breaks down to a simple 1.1 miles a day!! Very doable, don’t you think?

INTERNATIONAL WALKERS WELCOME. We will ship shirts to finishers worldwide!!

For those who have participated in past years, you know how fun this Spring100 walking community is. Last year we had thousands of participants from across the world (USA, Mexico, Canada, France, Estonia, Turkey, Australia, Austria, Belgium, and… did I forget anyone??)! This year I want to see YOU join the challenge. Don’t forget, the more participants we get to join, the funner this group will be! So, please feel free to SHARE on Facebook + Instagram and tell all your family and friends to join! CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE SPRING100 Social Share Buttons

Why I host and hope you will join the Spring100 Challenge:

The Spring100 Challenge is one that I hope will remind you that we are participants in a daily spiritual race. Hebrews 12 commands us to RUN WITH ENDURANCE the race that is set before us. The wonderful news?! This is a race in which we are never forsaken and we do not run in our own strength. As believers, born-again Christians, we run the ultimate race with a triumphant forerunner, Jesus Christ our Lord, and we run it by His grace and in His strength! This life is a race to be run with endurance and can be as we set our eyes on HIM! Hebrews 12:1-3

To sign up simply fill out the form below!! ↓↓ Every Monday [100mileMonday] I’ll be posting a weekly recap with photos of those participating (YOU) walking across the world. Wherever you walk that week: your driveway, on a treadmill, through the park, on an old country road, or the beach (we can dream, can’t we!? ;)) With a sibling, friend, grandmother, or by yourself… Snap a photo and email it to Photos@Spring100Challenge.com. Each Monday I will be posting Spring100 recaps and providing a form for you to log your mile from the previous week!

THERE IS A PRIZE for all finishers!!

HERE IS THE FUN PART: Each participant that completes the Spring 100 challenge WINS a custom-designed Spring100 T-shirt! Male, female, and junior versions of this shirt are available so encourage your entire family and all your friends to join! To finish to completion and win a shirt you must submit check-ins and mile logging every 100 Mile Monday post. I can’t wait to walk 100 miles with you all this spring! 2022 Shirt Colors:

Please note: Shirt colors may vary slightly depending on availability!

Join the fun & don’t forget to share the challenge with friends and family!

Leave a comment below with any QUESTION or comments or just to let me know you’re in this challenge with me!!

Spring100 WEEK 13
June 7th-June 13th!!

β€œAnd He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.”
2 Corinthians 12:9-10

Here we are with 6 days remaining in this year’s Spring100! Sunday, June 20th is the FINAL day to grab your miles for the 2021 Spring100! 6 days left to walk and meet your 100-mile goal or add to the 100+ miles you have already walked.πŸ‘πŸΌπŸŽ‰ You’ve rounded the corner and the finish line is in sight…. Set your eyes on the prize and RUN!!!!! We are cheering you on. Find your strength in the Lord…. YOU CAN DO THIS! πŸ™‹πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ I don’t know how we’ve even gotten here but I am amazed! Amazed by the Lord’s goodness, strength, and grace which has been so evident in each Spring100er as I watch you all nearing and crossing the finish line! Whether you are one of our youngest walkers at age 3 or our oldest at age 100, every step walked in this Spring100 has been a gift from God. It’s True! A verse that has come to mind is Acts 17:28, β€œFor in him we live, and move, and have our being…” So my friends, let’s finish the last 6 days strong and singing the Lord’s praise. I’ll be seeing you at the finish line!

IMPORTANT INFO

WEEK 13 QUESTION:

From injuries to busy schedules to the unexpected that finds its way into our Spring days, getting behind happens. Let’s encourage them on in the Lord! πŸ™‹πŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸƒπŸ½β€β™‚οΈπŸƒπŸΌ

Happy Birthday, Gita! πŸ’

For this 100MileMonday post, I’m doing something a little different!! ☺️Today, we are having a Spring100 birthday celebration!! Gita is our oldest Spring100 walker and celebrated her 100th birthday this past Saturday! Do you want to hear something amazing? Gita has already finished her 100 miles for Spring100!! I am so blessed to have Gita a part of this challenge.πŸ’• Her testimony of God’s faithfulness throughout her entire life is such a blessing! Today’s post is dedicated to Gita, a fellow Spring100 walker, encourager, inspiration, and sister in Christ! Happy Birthday, Gita!! πŸ™‹πŸΌβ€β™€οΈπŸŽ‰ I am excited to share her amazing story shared with me by her dear friend Sheri:

When Gita was a young woman, Russian soldiers invaded her country of Estonia. After she endured and survived many weeks of constant bombing of Tallinn, Estonia’s capital where she lived, Gita and what was left of her family fled the country the evening before Russia invaded. TheyΒ sailed away on a hospital ship called the Moero. But the next morning, out in the Baltic Sea,Β the Moero was torpedoed by Russian planes, and sank in about 6 minutes, taking nearlyΒ 4,000 peopleΒ onboard down with it, including her first husband. TheyΒ had been married only one year. Gita and her younger brother, Erich,Β managed to jump from the sinking ship into separate large life preservers. Gita’s wasΒ filled with other people, but her brother’s had only one other man in it. Erich had dreamed the night before that the ship would be sunk and he would die!
Gita life preserver floated away from the 3 boats that came to rescue survivors. After floating in the freezing water for 4 hours, they were picked up by a German U-boat (submarine) and taken to what was then called Gdansk, Poland. Her brother never showed up at the displaced person’s camp, and she learned fromΒ witnesses on another rescue shipΒ that the β€œyoung man in a life ring with only two men” had fallen from the knotted rescue line they threw to him, and he had been sucked into the ship’s propeller. Gita was devastated. He was her final family member, except for her grandmother who was still in Estonia. She never saw her grandmother again, either.
Gita wandered from one country to the next with no home, no family, no nation;Β but God always sustained her with several miracles, pulling her from certain death time after time. Finally, she ended up behind the American lines and when WW2 ended, she met an officer that would become her husband and bring her to America! She had 6 children, got saved, and was part of a group of 5 people that started my church back in 1970. She loves the Lord with all her heart, and still serves Him, baking cookies and cakes as gifts for many people, old and young alike. AND she gardens with the flowers she loves!

“The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:
The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.”
Numbers 6:24-26

Week 12 Question:

Not a question today BUT a request!! Would each of you wish Gita a happy 100th birthday in the comment section below?? πŸ₯³πŸ’

β€œWherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Hebrews 12:1-2
