The Morning Cruise Replay - The Race Is Run

We're running on empty after a very full weekend with Team Freedom and running for those not free to run yet at the Gasparilla Distance Classic. It was a great success as we celebrated with raising more than $1million since the start of the program.  As we got settled into our seats, we turned back to Friday when we shared new music from Brooke Ligertwood.  Then we told you all about the Team Freedom Worship Rally with Natalie Grant.  Bill met a few listeners that he told us about while on the race course for the half marathon.  Dave missed the Team Freedom activities as he was at a memorial service for a friend.  Carmen and her daughters went on a secret mission to surprise Pete at an awards dinner where he was recognized as Agent of the Year.  Bill's been having an issue with Google Maps and wanted to hear your thoughts on the matter.  Dave is excited for the return of American Idol which kicked off last night.  We'll be sharing a conversation we had with Tauren Wells in the near future, but we couldn't wait to share a new song from him.  Now that Team Freedom is behind us, we're looking ahead to FriendRaiser and the race to that finish line is on!  Before we got to the end of the show, we had to take a minute and celebrate Carmen's birthday.  And with Team Freedom and FriendRaiser on his mind, Bill has a certain theme on his mind for his BIG Words this week.  00:32 Brooke Ligertwood's Honey In The Rock  01:36 Team Freedom Worship Rally  05:02 Meeting other runners  09:26 Carol's Memorial Service  13:39 FriendRaiser  17:45 Operation Surprise Pete  25:12 Team Freedom video on Instagram  26:09 Google Maps Issue  31:30 text responses  33:26 American Idol is back  37:28 Tauren Wells "Fake It"  39:40 FriendRaiser  43:16 Carmen's Birthday  47:08 Bill's BIG Word
