David Caldwell, former NFL player and all around inspirational guy, is letting me follow his journey back to the NFL to live his dream again.  Read Part I of our photo story.

This day brought us to a gym run by his high school friend MMA fighter Dwayne Holman.  DAC (David) also brought along his college buddy BW Webb, of the Dallas Cowboys-  they went to William & Mary together.  So the plan was for them to work out as if I was not there.  I followed them through their routine trying to not get in their way – catching them working really hard – and having a few laughs in between.

You can see the affection between these guys who have supported each other to reach their goals.  And it does not go un noticed how hard they work.  Within minutes they were pouring sweat and breathing hard.  In the end, my socks were wet from stepping on their sweat.  Now THAT’s the sign of a good workout.  All in a good days work on the road back to the NFL.
