www.mikepedersenforcongress.com I’ve spent my life in service to this country and my community. Now, I’m ready to serve again — not as a politician, but as a patriot who understands what’s at stake. What drives me is simple: I love this country, I love Florida, and I

want my grandchildren to grow up in a nation that still honors truth, discipline, freedom, and opportunity. That’s why I’m running to represent Florida’s 19th Congressional District

As I continue to reflect on the past 15 months, especially since Aug 18th …
=====

The cost of INACTION is always higher than the cost of failure.

Always.

Failing teaches you.
Doing nothing destroys you.

Take action. Learn. Grow.

Inaction only ever leads to more difficulty and challenges.

Desire to be the man in the arena.

Or, for a sports analogy related to America’s National Pastime:
—
Desire to be the one at the plate in the batter’s box … not a watcher from the bench.
—

As we fondly say in Fighter Jet aviation:
“Speed is life.”

But, ultimately, I have always believed that God has an individual plan for each of us.

Faith is oh-so powerful.

ONE WEEK POST ELECTION DAY: THE MISSION CONTINUES.

Last night, I was right back on the wrestling mat at Triton Youth Wrestling practice.

Even throughout 15 months of campaigning, I never stopped being Coach Mike / Coach Pedersen. I made a commitment to these young people long before I ever put my name on a ballot, and I intend to keep it.

Elections have a finish line. Service doesn’t.

It was great spending the evening doing what I’ve done for more than 2 decades—investing in our youth, building character and hopefully making a difference along the way.

The campaign is over. The mission to serve is not.

10 years ago TODAY —-

ESPN’s SC Feature documentary “Pin Kings” was first aired on TV. They ran it for months. Oftentimes, once a day.
——
Very proud of my little brother Kevin’s story. —-

A tale of friendship, accomplishment, hardship, life decisions, regrets, and eventually … redemption and forgiveness.

Four years ago, Kevin was rightly inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame (Florida Chapter) under the fitting category of “Outstanding American.”
