An Amazing Story

If you've followed any of the Olympic news the last couple of days you have heard the name Lopez Lomong. His story is amazing. You can read about it here.

"When we were in Africa, we didn't know what was there for us as kids--we just ran. God was planning all of this stuff for me, and I didn't know. Now I'm using running to get the word out about how horrible things were back in Sudan during the war. Sometimes these things are not on CNN, so if I put out the word, I hope people can get the information. Right now, similar terrible things are going on in Darfur; people are running out of Darfur, and I put myself in their shoes." - Lopez Lomong
