“I had my time” — @benjamin.notarangelo

All jokes aside, I did it. I graduated from Converse University.

I made great friends, took a lot of strides, and had countless learning experiences, as a student, an athlete, a leader, and most importantly, a brother to my friends.

When I was around 4 years old, I was diagnosed with autism. I hadn’t spoken a word since I was 4, and I was told I probably wouldn’t be in a normal classroom or even graduate high school.

Well, I guess here I am.

I’m thankful for my family, peers, friends, teammates, coaches, and professors for everything they’ve done for me along the way.

I know my family members who aren’t here anymore Justin, my cousin, my grandfather, and my aunt are looking down proud of me.

Loved my time here. Wouldn’t trade it for anything.

TLDR: I can’t believe it’s done, 8 years. Thanks for the memories, friends, coaches, and family who supported this journey!

To start this off, I was just a kid who didn’t have anything going on in my life. My mom @cynthia9cw told me to join XC or Band in high school. I chose XC. I started off with a 28:07 5k PR. I grinded to get down 10 minutes training with all sorts of people like @dont_hug_im_scared and @stephenholl18. They pushed me to get better everyday.

Then as I got better I made more friends along the way. I grew as an athlete, my dad @wrightjamie31 supported me and kept me humble the whole journey. I made friends; I triumphed and trusted the process. I made many friends along the way like @jackson_skull._, @_nicklavelle_ and many countless others. They helped push me and grow as a person and an athlete.

Coming to @conversedistancexc and @valkyriesxctrack I had to trust the process. I had a lot of improving to do as a person. I made many great friends, both who became my brothers and sisters. They gave me a reason to be better everyday. Coaches like @rogermalonda @grace.dwyer, @matt_hammersmith, @ziggy_da_gr8, and @mrennix_15 who taught me humility, disciple and patience. They also taught me loyalty, seeing how much we progressed makes me so happy. I made many friends, I learned great lessons. I went from the freshman who had a lot to learn. Now I’m called Unc haha.

It’s crazy how time flies by fast, I was once the runner who ran 28 minute 5ks, to running for an amazing program. I couldn’t have have done it without god, my friends, my teammates, and my family.

Yeah I’m going to still run; but it won’t be the same training with my brothers and sisters I’ve grown attached to on this team, it’s just a surreal experience of camaraderie and real friendship I’ll yearn to repeat again.

So for the new generation, enjoy it while it lasts, you only get to be a kid for so long.

Much love to everyone who supported me and befriended me along the way. I appreciate all the coaches who gave me a chance, and develop as not only an athlete but as a person. It’s been real.

Veni, Vidi, Vici,
