Race and Ride Updates:
What a great weekend this has been! Not only have we added 3 no scratch that... 4 new FCA Endurance members. I would like to introduce David Kinchen to the team as well. David raced down at Carrolton last weekend in the John Tanner Tri the Parks series. We look forward to catching up with David soon. Welcome to the team David!

I would also like to take a moment to give out some kudos to some teammates who experienced great success in their races. Brenda Herrington took 1st place in overall women in the Mountain Madness Half Distance Triathlon. Way to go Brenda!

James Hebebrand and Neil Blalock took on the 6 hour solo race while Mark Herrington joined Jason D'Arcy (Scar hunters) in a 9 hour team relay race.

Jason Morrison competed in the 3 State 3 Mountain challenge 100 mile bike ride.

Gary Bernau took on the Atlanta to Athens MS 150 Fundraiser Ride.

Great job team Endurance! I hope everyone found an opportunity to share during the race.

Stay tuned for more great things to come! Until then find someone new to reachout to and help them along, share your faith!

As fellow teammate "Pastor Tim" always reminds us... Live for Jesus!

Thank you each for serving,
Doug Delzell
