Description: What happens when your faith gets tested in real time? In this powerful episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Nick Surface, Garrett Unclebach, and their wives set out to run a 50-mile ultra marathon—but what unfolds becomes far more than a physical challenge.

But when one of their own collapses with heat stroke and is rushed to the hospital, everything shifts. Suddenly, the race isn’t the hardest part.This episode captures what it looks like when faith isn’t just talked about—it’s lived.
