COT:
Q shared importance of sprint distance. 2,555 days is 7 years. It’s been that long since my bone marrow transplant after battling leukemia.
Some days you wake up and have an idea as to what will happen and some days the dice of fate you give you hardship. Along the way there have been ups and downs and issues galore but thankful to be on this side of it all.
Going into my fight I was as lukewarm in life as one could be, but that quickly changed as God kept peeking through in numerous ways. It helped to have a strong support system that continues to this day and has grown with F3. It’s an honor to be out with yall in the mornings.
