In this third installment of the men of faith series I sit down with my best friend and brother, Brandon Crites. Brandon and I met on social media almost 2 1/2 years ago and haven't looked back. We have had a great friendship and it just gets better every day. I enjoyed this episode with Brandon because even though we talk about some running, we also dig into Brandon's background and his faith and how important and critical it is for success in our daily lives. Brandon also joined me during season 1 on the podcast for episode 13, Faith, Family and Ultra Running, https://runningfordistance.podbean.com/e/brandon-crites-faith-family-and-ultra-running-1588282858/

Brandon is a successful ultra runner, husband, father, businessman and head boys basketball coach, but most importantly, he is a man of faith and follows after God with all of his heart. I hope you will catch that as we journey down the trail and dig into who Brandon Crites is.
