Michael McSwain's beautiful quote after a race: "Through all of our lives, the good Lord puts a lot of adversities on our plates, and sometimes we don't know how to take 'em. Sometimes we think they're a smack in the face, but He's always got another plan, and this right here is living proof of it. He's blessed us all with each other and we're having fun again." (Rom 5, 3-4, McSwain Version)
