I pretty much had to have my dad come out of retirement. He was almost 70 to take over my slack because I was gone an hour and a half in the middle of the day. I had to train when it was hot out because all the track meets you go to – are hot. So there's no point in me training earlier in the evening.

If you go to the track meet and it's not 100 degrees out, you know, and you're not used to it, you're going to run like shit. But I just kept training and training and it was, I mean, it was tons of work. I mean, it was a lot of doubting going on because, I mean... My goal was to make Team USA, to make Team USA to be one of the fastest spinners in the entire world.

Like, you have to be top five or they're not even going to really look at you because it's so expensive for them to take you places and this and that. Well, I run enough track meets that I got noticed, and they actually sent me to Lima, Peru to run the Parapan American Games down there.

I ended up placing first in the 100, and got second place in the 200-meter dash in the Parapan American Games, which, I mean, I was ecstatic because you get to hear the national anthem being played for the first time from a kid that's less than five years ago.

It was 2015, so four years ago I was an alcoholic, weighing 200 pounds that I wouldn't trust with my own kids at one point in time because I was driving around drinking with my daughter in the vehicle. I mean, it was just a normal thing for me. It was horrible. I never had a rock bottom, but I had a lot of moments looking back where I'm like, I'm a freaking idiot.

I can't believe I got away with this, this, and this. My son has never seen me drink a drop of alcohol in my life. My daughter's 11 and Hayes is 8, so he's never seen me drink ever in my life, but To be honest, the worst day of my entire life was when I was actually sneaking alcohol into the hospital my daughter was born. Because that's how much it had a hold on me back then.

And it was ridiculous to think back at that I had to do that to survive. And so I like to promote, you know, Obviously, social drinking is not a big deal, but when you're something like that, I'm here to help. I've been through a lot in my life, and hopefully I can help other people that are going through the same issues that I went through, knowing that you can be at the bottom.
