Jax#528mx

Watching Jax's name come across the Loretta Lynn's broadcast this morning was such a proud moment. It was a reminder of how much work, sacrifice, and dedication it took to get here.

Sometimes life has different plans.

Instead of lining up at the gate this year, he'll be having surgery next week. While it's hard to see him face this challenge, we're believing it's just one small chapter in a much bigger journey.

If you could keep Jax in your prayers, we'd be so grateful. We're praying for a successful surgery, quick healing, and a full recovery.

Even before surgery, he's been running the 2.3-mile loop by our house several times a week to stay in shape. As soon as the doctors clear him, we'll get back to doing everything we can to keep him healthy, strong, and moving forward.

Setbacks don't define a person—how they respond to them does. We know he'll be back, and we're thankful for everyone who has supported and encouraged him along the way❤️

Progress is a marathon, not a sprint. That's what someone once told me. Its so true.

Today Jax earned his second ticket of the season. It's also his third straight year qualifying for Loretta's and his second year racing multiple classes.

What people see is the ticket.

What they don't see are the thousands of miles in the van. The long drives home after tough weekends. The time spent away from family and friends. The early mornings, late nights, and countless hours at the track. The injuries that make you question everything. The moments of doubt when you're not sure if all the sacrifice is worth it.

Looking back, it's amazing how the goals have changed.

A few years ago, our dream was simply to qualify for Loretta's. We just wanted a ticket.

Then we got one.

Now the goals are different. Work hard enough to earn a top 10. Then a top 5. Then a podium. And maybe someday, a win.

It's all relative.

No matter where you are in your journey, there is always another level to chase. That's what makes growth so hard and so rewarding at the same time.

For the kids heading home this weekend without a ticket, don't give up.

Keep showing up. Keep working. Keep believing. The riders earning tickets today weren't handed anything. They earned it through years of hard work, setbacks, disappointments, and perseverance.

A few years ago, we were the family loading up the van and heading home without a ticket, wondering what we needed to do differently. Today, Jax is headed back to Loretta's for the third straight year.

The goals have changed, but the process hasn't.

Put in the work. Stay patient. Trust the process.

Progress happens one lap, one practice, one workout, and one race at a time. 🏁❤️

Thank you to everyone who keeps him moving forward👊

Nothing worse then racing with an upset stomach. I don't know if he has food poisoning or a stomach bug but he tried his best to make it through today he threw up before every moto. Im proud of him for finishing. 3rd and 4th overall today.

5-5-1-2 today 🔥

Ended up 3rd overall in Schoolboy and 125 B/C.

Had some really strong moments out there and showed the speed we know is there 💪

Just need to clean a few things up and put it all together for tomorrow.

We’re right in the mix… time to lock in and go to work ⚡️

More motos tomorrow. Let’s get it. 👊
