Laurie Abrams--Hebrews 12:1  Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance 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 has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Laurie Abrams--Philippians 4:13  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Troy Soares--1 Corinthians 9:23-25  Now this I do for the gospel's sake, that I may be partaker of it with you.  Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize?  Run in such a way that you may obtain it.  And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things.  Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.

Terry and Betsy Davis-  Tri-California was lifted up to the Lord for blessings with this verse. -- Ecclesiastes 4:9-12  Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor.  For if they fall, one will lift up his companion.  But to him who is alone when he falls, for he has no one to help him up.  Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; But how can one be warm alone?  Though one may be overpowered by another two can withstand him.  And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

The Triathlon at Pacific Grove 1998 scripture was--Isaiah 40:13.  Those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles,
they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
