Kimbre’s Story

Over the years, I have developed a love for running and it has become a place of quiet time with God where I get to step out and spend time with Him as I run through my community. On these runs I spend time talking to God, praying for my husband and 3 kids, praying for my community, asking that God would use me to further His kingdom and so much more!

I wouldn’t naturally call myself a runner, but it has definitely become something I love to do because I get to step away from the chaos of life and run with God. The farthest race I have run to date is a half marathon (13.1miles) but I am stepping out this year and looking to complete my first marathon (26.2miles).

As I started training for the Baystate Marathon, I spent time on my longer runs asking God how He could get the glory for this and how I could get other people involved in our community. He kept telling me, “The Root Cellar.”

So, I have decided to combine my love of running with my love of The Root Cellarto make an impact within my community for the sake of furthering the Kingdom.

I will be running at the Baystate Marathon in Massachusetts on October 20th. I am hoping that you will join me on this journey and help me raise is a total of $2620!

I would love for you to join me on this journey! Let’s partner together to get across the finish line!
