Yesterday, I ran in the Princeton Half Marathon.

Admittedly, I probably should have trained more for it.

I hit a wall around mile 10 and yes, I know my build isn't ideal for distance running.

At my first 'dark valley', I spotted Devon with the kids and my mom! I wasn't expecting her to be there.

It gave me a boost to get through the next 2 miles, at which point, the wheels came off a little bit. Ha! My legs were giving out, cramping pretty severely.

I called Devon as I sat in the middle of the road, trying to get my right leg to unlock. I heard her say to my mom, 'I knew it! He's cramping! Boys, go help dad…'

Could it be that they were right around the corner?

Indeed they were.

My mom, Brad and Colty, appeared and they ran the last half mile with me, willing me on and cheering me on.

The boys kept saying, 'Dad, don't stop.'

It was a beautiful moment and one that I will never forget.

As we crossed the finish line, the boys walked with me to get our medal. 🏅

I then embraced my mom and unexpectedly, she embraced me for about 2 minutes while tears of happiness ran down my face. ❤️

I couldn't have scripted it any better.

Remember, it's always darkest just before dawn…

Be Unconventional,
