What is TEAM 413? If you have done a lot of races, you’ve likely seen their booth at the expo. Team 413 Gracerunner Ministries was founded by Chris Gillespie and is the world’s largest ministry for endurance athletes. The mission of Team 413 is to share Christ with everyone along the journey. The team exists to share the love of Christ in the athletic world through words and actions; to minister to runners in road races throughout the country as we run “side by side.”

The ministries operates on a very small budget, so each year they reach out for help. Donations aid Team 413 in expo booth rental at major marathons as well as financial aid to assist runners who have significant personal needs. It is because of funds donated by supporters of Team 413 that the ministries can continue to share the love of Christ throughout the endurance running community.
