Author Paul Box shares the powerful result when his faith combined with his love for running in Endurance: 7 Marathons on 7 Continents in 7 Days: A Journey of Faith, Adventure and Self-Discovery ($23.99, paperback, 9781662895074; $9.99, e-book, 9781662895081).
Box took the sport of marathon running to the next level. From running in the blistering cold winds of Antarctica to the sunbathed beaches of Dubai, he ran an incredible seven marathons on seven continents in seven days. He struggled, bled and fought alongside 55 other runners maneuvering the globe on icy runways, along beautiful cobblestone streets and moonlit beaches. According to Box, this journey strengthened and encouraged him as God led him into deeper faith and love for others, a life-changing physical and spiritual adventure that forever changed him. His remarkable story serves as powerful inspiration for all readers looking to make the most out of an adventurous, faith-filled life.
When asked what inspired the author to write this book, Box said, “Running 7 marathons on 7 continents in 7 days was life changing. I journaled the experience and in the end was encouraged by many friends to publish my journal. I was inspired by the way endurance has helped me in every facet of my life. I believe and pray that I am a better husband, father, elder, community volunteer, and advisor because of the lessons God teaches me daily while running and training, logging miles.”
Paul Box has been married to his wife, Natalie, for over 20 years and they are the parents of two beautiful daughters. They live in Waxahachie, Texas where he serves as a Financial Advisor and where he has been running and training with a wonderful group of friends since 2010. Box has completed 48 marathons and 10 ultra-marathons while also serving as the race director for the Hachie 50 Ultra Marathon. He serves as an Elder at The Avenue Church. He and his wife co-founded and serve on the board of a local non-profit, Walk In Love, aimed to meet the practical needs of those living nearby.
