My name is Elliott Jantzer though at many races it gets written down as Elliot Jantzer. Which sort of gets annoying but i've learned to live with it. But with this mistake i now have two profiles someplaces. And i have to look up myself with both names. My last name is a kicker too. Most people pronounce it as Jan-t-zer, but its of German heritage so the correct way to say it is Yon-t-ser. But even this i'm sure is not completely way my German relatives used to say it 6 generations ago. All my friends laugh at me at the meets when they butchermy name. Its become a sort of game to see how close they get it. I think the worst one was when they called me Jans-ner. My team really got a laugh out of that one.

I am a strong christian. I try to run my life according to Gods word (no pun intended). To me running has become more than a way to win or a fitnessthing. Running is the best way i can show the world what God has given me. I run because God has blessed me with the ability to do so. Without God i have nothing. My running is in vain. But through God i can conquer the world. With Christ i can do anything.
