Free 12-week half marathon plan. DM me HALFPLAN and it's yours. Beginner and intermediate tracks side by side on every page. Plain-English glossary. Weekly coach's notes.

Six moves. Five to seven minutes. Illustrated with stick figures. Written with dry humor because warm-ups have always deserved better content than they get. Free one-page printable. Do these before every run. Yes, every run. DM me WARMUP and I'll send it. #running #runnersoftwitter

I made 8 free printable Scripture cards for runners — ESV verses with honest context explaining what each one actually meant when it was written. Not bumper sticker theology. Cards you can actually carry. DM me CARDS and I'll send the link. #faith #running

Name one thing you've forgotten at a race. I built a free checklist so it never happens again. 7 sections. 40+ items. Gear, nutrition, warm-up, logistics, mental prep, your goal numbers, and a race-day prayer. Complete it the night before. DM me CHECKLIST and it's yours. #running #marathon

Still looking to connect with youth pastors on X.

If that is you, or you know someone, let’s build something encouraging here.

[Cody Mummau @runhardmoose]

Youth pastors:
Do not underestimate the power of a simple conversation after a message.

Ministry often happens in the margins. Don't shut down after you speak. Be approachable. Look for those that want to go deeper.

Mental reframes. Six mantras. A 3-question start-line check-in. A race-day prayer. Free guide for the 24 hours before your race when your brain is trying to talk you out of everything you trained for. DM me PUMPUP and I'll send it over. #running #halfmarathon

Definitely listened to Queensrÿche’s "Operation: Mindcrime" album for the first time as an adult. Wow. Now trying out Iron Maiden Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. These novels by albums are no more... right?

[Cody Mummau @runhardmoose]

In spite of your wit, your critique does not hold up. The exclusivity of Christ isn't a Johannine quirk... Peter says it in Acts 4:12 ("no other name under heaven") yes Acts ISN'T one of the Gospels but written by Luke a Gospel author. Paul says it in Romans 10 and 1 Timothy 2:5, and Jesus himself says it in Matthew 7 and 11. Pull John out and the narrative is the same. Also, "he had an agenda" applies to every Gospel writer. Luke states his agenda openly in chapter 1. Having a purpose isn't the same as being unreliable; it's what a Gospel is by definition. The "John is the odd one out" framing is a modern critical assumption, not something the early church (which was much closer to the eyewitnesses than we are) ever entertained.

After 30 years in student ministry, here is something I know:
You will not always see the fruit right away.
But that does not mean the work is not working.
Don't grow weary...

Let's connect! If you are in student ministry, I'd love to know you!

Teaching this week on 2nd John and came up with this line: "To love without obedience is not love. To obey without love is not obedience."

Thoughts?

Six declarations for the runner who needs to remember who they are before the shoes go on. Free one-page printable. Print it on cardstock. Post it where you'll see it at 5am. Anchored in Hebrews 12:1. DM me MANIFESTO and it's yours. #running #faith

If you are a youth pastor who has been serving 5+ years, I would love to connect and encourage.

Longevity in student ministry matters.

Youth pastors: If you are out there, drop your church and city below! I'd love to know you, learn from, and be an encouragement to you!

Let’s help each other find connections.

(If you know a youth pastor on X... let me know so I can follow!)

[Cody Mummau @runhardmoose]

Youth pastors:
What is one challenge you are facing right now?
Not for debate. Just to understand and encourage.

I want to pray for you and your ministry!

RUNNING RESOURCE! 180 minus your age. That number is your MAF heart rate — and if you've never trained below it for 30 days, you don't actually know what your aerobic base looks like. Free guide to find out. DM me MAF and I'll send you the link. #MAFtraining #running

Trying to connect with more youth pastors on here.

If you know someone serving in student ministry, tag them below.

I would love to build a strong network here to learn from and to encourage.

Youth pastors: The most important part of your ministry is not your message. It is your presence. It may sound off -but- if you don't invest in those relationships, they won't take in your message.

Students remember who showed up for them.

Most runners set one type of goal — a finish time. There are three more that matter just as much. I made a free 3-page guide that teaches all four and gives you the worksheet to fill them in before your next training cycle. DM me GOALS and it's yours. #running
