For some, it&#8217;s running. A few take this a little more seriously, including Fr. Daniel Pajerski, LC, Fr. Michael Sliney, LC, Fr. Brian Hoelzen, LC, Fr. Stephen Dyas, LC, Tony MacDonnell (Consecrated Man) and Katie Tuttle (Consecrated Woman), who all ran marathons recently. All four priests ran their marathons within nine days of each other.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13286\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13286\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/22424606_1315188618591912_6366317933849759003_o-300x225.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-13286 size-medium lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13286\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13286 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/22424606_1315188618591912_6366317933849759003_o-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\"><\/noscript> Fr. Brian Hoelzen, LC and Fr. Michael Sliney, LC after the Hartford Marathon<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For Fr. Michael, running marathons has a spiritual aspect: \u201cI wanted to offer up that effort for vocations: that\u2019s what drove me during my practice runs and especially during the Marathon itself. When it hurt, I thought about all the kids thinking about the vocation, trying to gain graces for them.\u201d Fr Sliney had offered up his marathon two years ago for a woman then battling cancer, who is now cancer free.<\/p>\n<p>Fr. Daniel takes a more stoic approach, noting: \u201cI\u2019m one of those guys who has their &#8216;nothing box,&#8217; and when I\u2019m running, I just focus on running, so I can\u2019t have a lot deep prayer going on in the moment, but I try to make intentions beforehand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Katie got started in Michigan: Fr. Pajerski had mentioned he was running the Boston Marathon and asked for sponsors. People were generous, and he raised about $10,000 for the seminary in Cheshire. She shared, \u201cI ran track and cross-country in high school, and I was sitting there thinking, \u2018I\u2019d like to race and raise money for vocations.\u2019\u201d She said that she always offers her races for vocations.<\/p>\n<p>Katie also reflected on 1 Corinthians 9:25 in light of running marathons. St Paul says, \u201cEvery athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.\u201d Katie reflected, \u201cTraining for the marathon was really a motivation for my life. I want to be a saint. I want to go to heaven; that\u2019s really my goal. I want to strive each day to reach that goal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fr. Michael, Fr. Daniel, Tony and Katie had each run marathons before. Fr. Pajerski is definitely the fastest at 3:12:29, in fact <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marathonguide.com\/Features\/Articles\/2010RecapOverview.cfm#FinishingTimes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an analysis<\/a> of all marathon finishers found that only about 9.2% finished under 3:30. Katie Tuttle wasn\u2019t far behind at 3:30. Most of the others had times between 3:30 and 4 hours which puts them in the top 30% of finishers.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13281\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13281\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tony-NY-Marathon-e1518043023655-225x300.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13281 lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13281\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tony-NY-Marathon-e1518043023655-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\"><\/noscript> Tony MacDonnell, Lay Consecrated Man of Regnum Christi, at the New York Marathon<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>They ran in four different marathons.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fr. Dyas ran the Rockway Marathon on Long Island on October 7, 2017.<\/li>\n<li>Fr. Sliney and Fr Hoelzen ran the Hartford Marathon on October 14, 2017.<\/li>\n<li>Fr. Pajerski ran the Detroit Marathon on October 15, 2017where they had thunderstorms that almost cancelled the race.<\/li>\n<li>Tony MacDonnell ran the New York Marathon on November 5, 2017.<\/li>\n<li>Katie Tuttle ran the Houston Marathon on January, 2018 and qualified for the Boston Marathon.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Fr. Michael and Fr. Daniel both mentioned how the marathon training helps them. Fr. Michael spoke of health: \u201cIt\u2019s a great way to stay in shape and keep your mind and body running on all cylinders.\u201d Fr. Daniel instead focused on how it helps him organize, \u201cIt helps me use my time well because it requires discipline in my time to get training in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Independently, Fr. Pajerski, Fr. Sliney and Katie Tuttle all adopted the Hanson training method this time. The Hanson method is about 4 to 5 months of training where you run 25 to 50 miles a week , then take one day off, have one long run of 10-16 miles, one strength or speed run which is 5 to 7 miles of hard running, either an interval or in short bursts, and another marathon pace run of 6-10 miles where you run the pace you want to maintain through the marathon. One of the unique aspects of this method is that it focuses on weekly miles without having any overly long runs, with the longest run being 16 miles.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13285\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13285\" style=\"width: 213px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/16938694_1348233191905191_5837610687096096440_n-213x300.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-13285 size-medium lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"213\" height=\"300\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13285\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13285 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/16938694_1348233191905191_5837610687096096440_n-213x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"213\" height=\"300\"><\/noscript> Katie Tuttle, Consecrated Woman of Regnum Christi, after the Woodlands Marathon<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Katie Tuttle noted, \u201cThe whole experience of training for and running a marathon is a very spiritual experience for me. Sometimes, when it\u2019s an easy run day, I\u2019ll pray; I\u2019ll take in the scenery and reflect, and pray a rosary. But the days it\u2019s a hard run, the only prayer I get out is, \u2018Lord, help me get through this workout.\u2019\u201d She finds inspiration from people in tough circumstances who run, like a blind person, or someone with prosthetic legs.<\/p>\n<p>This time, Fr. Sliney had an extra challenge: about halfway through training, he pulled a hamstring. After asking around, he decided he could go on if changed his running style to be more on the toes of his feet. That took the pressure off of the hamstring, but caused issues with his toes and calves. He took it as one more of life life\u2019s obstacles, saying, \u201cWe can either give up, or we can find a way to make it work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fr. Sliney had a time of 3:49 in a previous marathon, and had the goal to do better. He had a strong pace the first 20 miles, but around mile 18 he started having cramps. He had to run through the pain for the last 8 miles. This reminded him of vocations, and his own priesthood. \u201cSometimes it\u2019s going to hurt to persevere in this thing, and there\u2019s a finish line.\u201d He said, \u201cI wanted to die as a faithful priest and this is a little test which could have spiritual ramifications: I can\u2019t give up.\u201d His final time was a little slower at 3:59 but he was satisfied, given all the pain he battled through.<\/p>\n<p>When he was asked what he\u2019d say to other Legionaries, consecrated men or women, or Regnum Christi members thinking about a marathon, Fr. Pajerski responded: \u201cIf you have the desire, try it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(picture above: Fr.
