“And I tripped on the rocks and had a big like bloody knee.”

Note: This is a good story, which is why we decided to feature it even though there are some issues with the audio quality.

Tell us about a time you fell down, and you got right back up. Okay, so, for this event, I’m not sure if I necessarily got right back up. But — so I was doing a triathlon with [sister’s name], mom, and dad. So my mom and dad were doing the biking portion. [Sister’s name] — it mighta been [sister’s name] and my mom or just [sister’s name] — were doing the swimming portion. And then me, my dad, and [sister’s name] were doing the running portion. And it’s like two miles to a 5K. And so I was running like on rocks. I don’t know why we were running on rocks, but I just know that I was. And I tripped on the rocks and I had a big like bloody knee. And I decide, you know, I’m going to keep running/walking. Well actually I got a few — ’cause I was like I’m not gonna get a bandaid until I get back. So I run/walk. We might’ve cut a few corners ’cause I was running with my dad. But I didn’t give up.
