Click Here for 2008 Race Results!  Thank you to all our sponsors and participants this year as we had over 200 registered walkers and runners.

Race for the Soul sets out to raise awareness of a different cause, one that has an infinite lasting effect, one that could reach someone in need, someone hurting, someone in need of a Savior.

In 2007, 100 runners and walkers participated in the first Race for the Soul and helped raise $3,000 for our beneficiary, Better Way Ministries, a ministry and mission in downtown Columbus. This was the only fund raising event Better Way had for the year and it allowed them to provide hundreds of people with the assistance they needed while also providing them the opportunity to hear about Christ. On race day, Wanda Campbell, President of Better Way, shared a very rewarding story about a group of homeless people who had asked her for tents to sleep in outside. At first she thought they didn’t have the available funds to help them until she remembered about the money coming in from the race.

The 2nd Annual Race for the Soul 4-miler will be at 9am on October 4, 2008 at Sharon Woods Park in Westerville. Registration is open for the first 1,000 race participants, running or walking, the 4 mile multipurpose trail.  By the way, the OSU @ Wisconsin game doesn’t start until 8pm.  Also, Chick-fil-a will be providing us Chicken Biscuits for the post race and Keystone Chiropractic will be conducting pressure point massage!

100% of the entry fees go to this year’s co-beneficiaries:

Better Way Ministries (thebetterway.us) is a street ministry and mission work founded by Pastor Steve Campbell and his wife, Wanda. Better Way stands as a place of hope to homeless and poor in the Short North area of the Columbus inner city. Race for the Soul is the only fund-raising event of the year for Better Way.

Life 2 Orphans (life2orphans.org) is a group of caring individuals helping over 6,491 orphans, aged 0 to 18 years, in orphanages in the Ukraine. Race for the Soul will help provide diapers, medicine, food, furniture and a long list of other special needs for children ages 0-3 in the Lotikovo Baby Orphanage.
