The soul purpose behind Chaos and Kindness is to empower people to be strong through the darkness and difficulties of life. Today, you helped carry Nick, our friend and camera man to the finish line of a spartan race when he had no training or fitness background of any kind prior to this.

He puked, he almost passed out, he struggled through mud and obstacles for hours, but he made it. It’s like a little microcosm for life: Even when the struggle seems unbearable sometimes, with some determination and love from those around you, you’ll make it through.

We are so proud of Nick today, and we hope he inspired some of you out there to reach your own finish lines.

Congrats Nick, we love you!
