A young student, Walter, had to trek 20 miles on his first day to resume at his new workplace. His car broke down the night before so he resorted to going on foot.

Before morning, the young man tried to see if his friends could take him but nothing came up as it was such short notice, Understanding Compassion reports.

He started walking at 12am

The young man never allowed that to discourage him. Instead of staying back, he decided to walk all the way.

After checking maps and seeing that he would need seven hours to get to Pelham, Walter decided to leave at midnight. He slept in the afternoon and woke at 12am to begin his journey, New York Post reports.

He said:

“I wanted to be there before 8. I wanted to beat the crew members there to let the company know how dedicated I am.”

At 4am, the man had already walked 14 miles, leaving six to complete, so he decided to rest a little. The student said his body ached all over.

He later got help

Some policemen who saw him at the roadside were amazed at his story and gave him breakfast before dropping him at a place to rest. While on his journey, he saw another officer who took him to his destination.

Another dedicated man was rewarded

Meanwhile, Briefly News earlier reported that a man, Donte Franklin, who walked many miles to his work every day got the kind of help he would never have imagined months ago.
