Run and Not Be Weary

Sometimes life requires us to make a leap of faith. Lee Murphy is a good runner - he finishes near the front in his local running club's races - but he thinks he should be better. He has tried everything he can think of to improve but nothing works until a chance conversation with acquaintance and fellow runner Emily Dawson leads him to clinical psychologist Lucinda Gehringer Emily's boss. Lucinda's instruction Emily's friendship and Lee's developing faith combine to produce an inspirational yearlong odyssey. Others particularly his pastor befriend and support Lee along the way but not everyone has his best interests at heart. Circumstances test Lee's growing faith. His own mother is an impediment and the self-serving Lucinda is a mixed blessing. Lee wants to succeed while being a man of God who cares for others. But it isn't easy in a dog-eat-dog world where some people are driven by ambition and self-interest.
