He was hospitalized on day three. He finished the next day.
In 2026 Andrew walked 200 miles from Houston to San Antonio to raise money for local youth football programs. On the third day he suffered heat exhaustion and dehydration near Seguin and was hospitalized. He crossed the finish line the very next day.
The walk was never only about fundraising. It was about showing young people that determination, faith and hard work can overcome even the toughest obstacles. That is the story Andrew brings to every stage.
