HI,
Hi my name is John Visintainer, and I am a 22 year old marathon runner I run 4:15 -5:30 miles, and plan to try for the 2012 olympics, and the 2013 Ironman triathalon.
I also am in the Us Army on a special forces contract with hopes of becoming a ranger.
I joined team world vision because I was wanting to do some good with my running. I am a christian and I saw the Team World Vision page and figured I could help more in the world too. Runnning is a lot like walking spiritully, you learn, feed yourself with imformation, and apply the imformation causing you to grow and develop as a runner.
I like Team World VIsion because it goes for long term change and i can see the work in action. I know when i breath my last that ive changed lives throught my running therefore meeting my life long goal.
