Yeah, I mean, which time?
The most famous one was the New York City Marathon in 2015.
The wheelchair broke.
And, you know, talk about like not seeing what was going on.
Like I spent an hour trying to fix the chair.
I mean, at one point, the NYPD drove me to a bike shop to try and fix this wheelchair.
So I'm exhausting myself because I don't want to quit and I don't want to have a DNF did not finish next to my name or Kyle's.
But when we started moving again, we were moving so slow and not to go into all those details unless you want like.
It got to the point where I basically just looked at him.
I was like, dude, I'm done.
I'm out.
This isn't us.
I don't know what we're doing.
And Kyle said, well, you can quit, but I'm going to finish.
And so at that point, we didn't speak to each other the rest of the race.
This is the short version.
And we finished the race.
And I look at my phone.
I've got hundreds of messages from people that are like, I cannot believe the one really poignant message said, you guys gave us the greatest lesson today by never giving up.
And I'm reading this to Kyle and I'm crying and I'm like so emotional about it.
