Sister Stephanie Baliga is passionate about serving God and making sure those in her Chicago community have food on their tables. She’s also a speedy runner since 2011, she’s run the Chicago Marathon to raise money for the Mission of Our Lady of Angels food pantry.
Now she has her sights set on a new goal - setting a new Guinness World Record. She found out no woman had ever recorded a time for running a marathon on a treadmill, so she aims to be the first. Sister Stephanie has set a fundraising goal of $146-thousand and hopes her personal marathon running record time of two-hours and 53-minutes will help her get there.
“I’m gonna be praying a lot there’s gonna be a lot of praying,”she says. “Jesus and I are gonna get through this together.”
