Josh Kerr is from Scotland. He is 28. He has worked hard to be fast. He was in a world championship in 2025. He started out zipping along in a race. But he hurt his leg. He limped to the finish line. He came in last! That did not stop him. His leg healed. He kept running. He set a goal. He wanted to break a world record. Mr. Kerr ran the fastest mile ever in July.

“I will run in the way of your commandments when you enlarge my heart.” (Psalm 119:32)
