About Striving Striders

We started as a group of three runners, training for the Country Music Marathon in the spring of 2007, who wanted to share the love of Christ with each other and others while running. It was out of our group training experience and a lot prayer that we sought to become the Nasvhille Chapeter of ChristianRunners.org. The purpose of this group is not to serve or take the place of a Bible study or things of that nature, it is to set an example of how to serve and to conduct ourselves as the “Living Example” and have a good time doing it while running, reaching goals, and being together.

"Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize." 1 Cor. 9:24
