“Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 3:13-14

Y’all have made it a LONG WAY! This Spring100 challenge has lasted 94 days and from the USA, Mexico, Belgium, and France thousands of miles have been logged. 2/3rds of those who began way back in March have finished or will be finishing these next couple days! ? 3x more people are crossing the finish line this year than crossed last year and lots are crossing the Spring100 finish line for the very first time. Many of you have overcome sickness, pain, or super hectic schedules to finish and for that I am truly humbled. ? Way to go each one of you! I am thanking the Lord for such a tremendously energetic Spring100 group and the endurance He has given each one of us to finish the 2nd annual Spring100 strong! Wednesday is the Spring100 Deadline and our final log will be posted on that evening along with extremely important info regarding how you will get your Spring100 shirt. So, keep your eyes on the blog and your email for closing announcements. ?? It is my prayer that you all continue forward in the strength and endurance of the Lord as you run the spiritual race set before you!

“Wherefore 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.”
Hebrews 12:1-4

About Rachel

"Come now, and let us reason together," says the Lord, "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If you are willing and obedient you shall eat the good of the land; but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword"; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken." Isaiah 1:18-20

  1. Count me in for next year!!! I can’t wait to do this in 2019!

    Congratulations to everyone who has finished!!!!! Great job!!!!! ?? And, if you didn’t make it, don’t be discouraged — be glad for the miles you put in, and keep working on it! Next year, I’m sure you can conquer!

    This has been marvelous, and I’ve loved seeing all the smiling faces! Thank you, Rachel, for all the work you do!

    1. ☺️? You will be pushing a double stroller by then!! ? Thank you for helping make the 2018 Spring100 fabulous Elisha!! ❤️☺️

    1. I’m so thankful you had fun, Esther!! Congratulations on crossing the finish line!!?????

  2. If the Lord don’t come and water don’t rise, I’d love to be apart of the 2019 group!!

    Congratulations everyone!! 100 miles is pretty amazing! And the effort EVERYONE put into walking 100 (completed or not) is amazing. ❤️

    This was definitely a great Mile Monday post Rachel!! Thanks for hosting Spring 100.

    1. ??? I love your answer, Hannah!!!!!!! It has been such a pleasure to have you this year. Can’t wait to see you for the 3rd annual Spring100(Lord willing)!! ?❤️☺️

  3. Fantastic final photos, everyone! It was so fun participating in the challenge and walking along with you all across the miles. I’ll definitely continue walking and hope to join in again next year, too.

    Great job persevering, all!

    1. I hope to see you next year, Hannah!! Thank you for blessing us with your participation. A true joy!! ☺️???

  4. First off, congratulations to everyone who has crossed the finish line or will by the last day of Spring!

    We walked the 15 miles 2 weeks ago in hopes of catching up…and then didn’t walk a single (calculated) mile this week! :-(

    But my 7 year old and I are looking forward to conquering this challenge next year. I’ve been able to access what we could have done differently in order to accomplish the goal next year–and I’m thankful for that. We will have a better plan to put into action for next year, Lord willing. :-)

    To keep me from sulking about not finishing this year–i’ve been trying to meditate on this truth:

    “for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.” 1 Timothy 4:8

    Godliness is of much more value (not to say that having our bodies under subjection is not a godly endeavor…)–and I need to be working out my spiritual muscles–along with training my little ones to do the same. Jesus is exceedingly more valuable than a ?shirt–but I certainly don’t always act like it. :-/

    Thank you to those who persevered–you’ve left us with a good example for next year! Thank you to those who encouraged us the week before last. Thank you, Rachel, for encouraging everyone from the very beginning. We will have to try and be more interactive next year. :-) <3

    1. No sulking allowed, Rebekah! ;) :) What gets me excited is seeing you persevere to the very end. Whether you finish the 100 miles or not here, your effort has not gone unnoticed and I hope you continue to be encouraged to press forward in the strength of the Lord! Continue to “press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” ???

  5. I started 2 weeks late because my Hubby had some serious surgery on March 20th. I began walking on April 7th. And there was still snow on the ground and I finished last week but just kept walking because I have grown to love it so much. I feel better, I sleep better and have so much energy. I can honestly say I am totally loving being outside in God’s Creation and listening to the birds singing and seeing ducks ? and geese. I love it ‼️I am so looking forward to clocking my miles in Israel next year. At least for the first couple weeks. I am so thankful to be a part of this wonderful challenge. YAYAY ~ Going to keep walking and walking and walking ~ Thanks to God for keeping me healthy and able to do this. Love y’all ?????

    1. Well done, Barbara!! Your determined perseverance and energy has blessed me this Spring100. ☺️??? Keep on walking and enjoying God’s glorious creation! ??‍♀️???

  6. Definitely going to sign up next year! Wondering what I can do to motivate me to keep walking these next 5-7 weeks. This was the best motivation ever—thank you so much for hosting it.

    1. Well, if you keep up walking over the summer you will be in better shape for next year’s Spring100?! ??‍♀️? I’ve so loved having you join the fun, Elizabeth!! Thank you! ☺️??

  7. I definitely hope to do Spring 100 again next year. It’s been great this year. I have loved seeing all the old and new faces. Thanks, Rachel, for doing this again. For those of you who haven’t finished yet, Keep up the good work. For those of you who have, Congrats!

    1. Yes, it has been so fun and your participation has been a blessing!! ? Thank you, Hannah!!! ☺️?

  8. Lord willing, I will be back again next year! We will see what HE has in store.

    Thank you, Rachel, for your diligence in hosting this!!!?

    “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.”
    ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭15:58‬ ‭

    1. Look forward to having you, Lord willing!! ??☺️? Thank you for being a faithful member of the 2nd annual SPRING100! ?????

  9. Lord-willing, I’ll be joining Spring100 again next year. I’ll admit that it was a tough spring with extreme weather (snow in April, 104 by the end of May!?), but I’m thankful for my Mom’s encouragement to keep going, even when I got behind. Congratulations to everyone who crossed the finish line, and for those who are almost there, you can do it! :)

    1. Way to go pushing it out, Rachel! I am always blessed by your participation and hope to see you next year if the Lord allows. Thank you for being a great Spring100 member!! ???

  10. Oh, WOW! Everyone looks SO happy to be crossing the finish line… congratulations Y’ALL!????? Lord willing, I will definitely be joining next year! Thank you, Rachel, for hosting!❤️ The fellowship has been such a blessing.?
