POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Ran 13.1 miles just to lay in the grass like I got evicted from my own legs. 😂

But that medal? EARNED.
D.C.? CONQUERED.
Memories? UNMATCHED.

They said “half marathon.”
My legs heard full disrespect. 😭🏅🔥

Still smiling. Still standing… eventually. 😎 by @_mr.marcus

☀️🐺 AND JUST LIKE THAT… THE SUMMER SERIES COMES TO AN END. 🏁

What. A. Summer.

We started with races to run, medals to chase, and goals we weren’t sure we could reach. But somewhere between the early mornings, blazing summer miles, tired legs, finish lines, laughs, and celebrations… we became something bigger than a group of runners.

We became FAMILY. ❤️

Every race told a story.

Some of us got faster.
Some went farther than ever before.
Some fought through miles that tested everything in them.
Some simply refused to quit.

And through every single one of those moments, THE PACK WAS THERE. 🐺

Cheering louder. Running together. Waiting at the finish line. Reminding each other that no matter your pace, your place, or how difficult the journey became…

YOU WOULD NEVER RUN ALONE.

To every runner who showed up this summer — BE PROUD OF YOURSELF. 🏅🔥

Look at the miles you conquered.
Look at the memories you created.
Look at the people standing beside you.

Those medals around our necks represent races completed…

But THIS FAMILY is what we really won.

The Summer Series may be over, but this story is FAR from finished.

Because seasons change.
Races change.
Goals get bigger.

BUT THE PACK REMAINS. 🐺

So one last time for the summer…

HEADS HIGH. MEDALS UP. PACK TOGETHER.

☀️ SUMMER SERIES: COMPLETE. ✅
🐺 THE FAMILY: JUST GETTING STARTED.

ONE PACK. ONE PURPOSE.
AS A TEAM. AS A PACK. AS A FAMILY.

Full transparency post. 22-25 was the most challenging and brutal phase as a young man could go through. Challenges and tribulations hit harder than ever. Things were done that could never be undone and a life was turned to something I wish to never see again. I remember sitting alone in that tub, I remember sitting alone and it got colder and sleep started to slip in. I remember that darkness creeping in and that light dimmed on me after 33 years of life. Then I woke up. They say we all have a story that’s written and we are just tuning the pages. I thought my book was closed and finished but that was me going against GODS plans. I started to move with a purpose and a different mindset. I was able to find support in friends who turned family. A hobby turned into a love reconnected. A vision I see that’s growing from the seeds planted. I can smile knowing that past I had was never the end. That past I tried to mask and hide and run from wasn’t motivation, it was an anchor grounding me. But today, I let that anchor go. I broke that chain of pain and strife on my heart. I joked about me and my demon making peace and being one, but now I’ll walk and make it on my own with the support I’ve gained from my angels. They been here all along and I can feel the weight gone and them lifting me up…never be afraid to break down and be out. Never be afraid of starting over when it got rough. Never be afraid of letting go. Be your authentic self. by @_mr.marcus

Not everything worth noticing has to be loud. Sometimes growth looks like peace, confidence, and showing up exactly as you are.

A HUNDRED AND FIFTY!?!? 5 Months!?!?! Look at him now and not a single piece of regret. I chose to live better and to do better and it’s becoming something I carry well on my back now. Best part is I’m not doing it alone. Appreciate all the help, fun times, wild times and above all being pushed to continue to become better and better each and everyday. 150 days down….who know how many more to go….you can always be imitated..but NEVER REPLECATED !!! CHEERS TO 150! 🙏🏾💪🏾 by @_mr.marcus

HOUSTON SERIES: COMPLETE. 🏁🐺

Different races. Different paces. Different battles to overcome. But when it mattered most, we stood together and conquered AS A TEAM.

This weekend wasn’t just about crossing finish lines — it was about proving what can happen when passion, discipline, and unity collide. Every early morning, every sacrifice, every painful mile and every ounce of hard work led to this moment… and every single one of you ROSE to the occasion.

I’m beyond proud of everyone who showed up, competed, supported, and left everything out on the course. We came with goals, attacked them head on, and shattered expectations together.

The Houston Series may be complete, but this is only the beginning of something much bigger. The hunger is still there. The mission continues.

Summer Series and Winter Series are on the horizon… and trust me, what’s coming next will be even greater. Stay ready. Stay hungry. Stay together.
