Yesterday was one of those days I will always remember.
I got to compete in HYROX with my son Beckham.
We ran together, pushed and pulled sleds, did burpees, carried weight, lunged, rowed and suffered a little together. It was hard. Really hard at times. And I loved it.
There was one moment that will stick with me more than anything else.
We had just finished the burpee broad jumps and I was hurting. Beckham came over, put his arm around me and encouraged me. I could tell he was proud of me.
Wow! That encouragement from a son is a powerful thing. We can always get that from The Son.
As a dad you spend so many years encouraging them. Telling them they can do hard things. Putting your arm around them when they’re tired or discouraged.
Then somewhere along the way they grow up and start doing the same thing for you.
I don’t have a picture of that moment. I don’t need one. It’s etched in my memory forever.
Looking through these pictures I just feel grateful.
Grateful for a healt...
