This was never just a race.
This was for the broken nights, the silent battles, the people fighting wars in their own minds that nobody else can see.

Every mile, every station, every breath was for the ones who felt forgotten. For the ones who feel like giving up. For the ones carrying pain in silence.

You are loved.
You are enough.
You are wanted.
And your story is not over.

Proud to complete my first HYROX NYC while raising awareness for mental health and honoring two lives that will never be forgotten. ❤️

Keep fighting. Keep showing up. Somebody needs your story.

Grateful doesn’t even begin to cover it. Thank you to my church family, my baptism coach, and everyone from the Auburn Tigers football community who showed up and poured love into this moment. Your presence meant everything to me. Sunday wasn’t just a celebration it was a declaration of who I am. God is moving and I’m walking in it.

Officially in Block 2 ‼️‼️

OTA’s Have officially started so our conditioning volume has decreased. Everything in block 1 has prepared our guys for the volume they’ll face in block 2. Block two will continue to build on getting our guys ready for contact.

Every Block sets up the next block ‼️

From the weight room to Conditioning have a plan.

Stop waiting for everything to line up before you move. ‼️

The perfect moment doesn’t exist. ❌

Run the race. Start the business. Apply for the opportunity. Knock on every door. Learn as you go. 🏃🏿‍♂️💨

God can’t guide a parked car. Trust Him, take the step, and let your progress speak louder than your fear. 📈

A big lesson that I learned from God this year, chase PROGRESS OVER PERFECTION.

Why do I show up smiling ?

Because I’ll never forget the moment we were evicted from our house and had to move 6 people into a one bedroom apartment. One closet, one bathroom, a new born and a couch that my brother and I shared.

I’ll never forget being homeless and sleeping in a car with my mom.

I’ll never forget the people who sacrificed time, finances and other resources to make sure I made it.

Sometimes we get so caught up in our CURRENT that we forget where we CAME from. Remember it isn’t just about you! Who do you owe to be great? taken in NC State University by @_coachbaker
