Every Finish Line, Together: Rebekah Takes 1st at Cal Tri LA
On Sunday, October 18, Rebekah lined up at Cal Tri LA in Playa del Rey and Marina del Rey – a 1,640-yard ocean swim, a 24.3-mile bike and a 6-mile run – and she brought home 1st place in the F35–39 division.
But the moment that got us wasn’t the podium. It was the finish chute. Our son William has crossed every single finish line with his mom since the day he was born, and this one was no different. Watching the two of them run it in together is the whole reason we do this.
A huge thank-you to Rebekah’s coach and our dear friend, Jacqueline Beaulieu, for every workout, every pep talk and every early morning. And thank you to all our friends and family who cheered, texted and prayed her across the line.
Racing is only one part of Rebekah’s story. She’s the author of The Growing Christian: Two Paths of the Christian Belief and the founder of Taking the Wins, a faith and postpartum community for moms in every season. She also co-founded our Christian apparel brand, Lord and Armor, with me. If you or someone you love could use some encouragement, start with her free 7-day devotional, 7 Days of Taking the Wins.
