It’s been exciting at track practice lately, last week we had Snappy from from SnapDragon apples visit - he brought former HS track star James Cook along with him.

We had a visitor at track practice last night. Hopefully, mama found it after we left.

I have proof that she was on the trip with me, I’m happy with that. I will miss the teenage years when they are gone.

Quick overnight trip to Boston with my middle daughter before she heads off for her real spring break. It started as a trip to watch one of my track athletes compete at NB Nationals, but turned into a sight-seeing trip when he couldn’t go. Definitely need to go back!

How do people not understand that judges are literally doing their jobs by checking what the president is doing against the constitution and current statutes?

As a HS track and XC coach and track mom with athletes now competing NCAA D1, this letter is important to share. The timing is particularly awful for this decision, as it impacts kids who didn’t even get recruited because of COVID, kids who run for the love of running.

Feels like it could be a productive day.

The ABA called yesterday for its 2025 Civic Literacy survey, a survey they do every year. My 14YO who was in the car with me at the time said after, “I wonder if it’s dis-heartening for them to hear how little most people know about how our country works.” I know it’s disheartening to me daily.

“I’ve ended government censorship.” WTH?!?! On the same day he says that he will arrest, expel or deport people who protest on college campuses. After he bans a neutral news agency from the Oval Office. After his administration bans books in military schools. Gaslighting at its best.

I love it when a work trip takes me someplace with weather opposite of home. I’m at the South Beach Wine & Food Festival in Miami this weekend! My drive to the airport on Friday AM started with more than a foot of unplowed snow on my road.

When I started coaching, I would tell the athletes Be Good. Be Great. I think I like Josh’s MVP speech even better, “Do Good. Be Good.” Though the mean somewhat different things - particularly as a coach talking to teens.

I grew up as a DEN fan & watched DEN/Elway lose 3 SuperBowls just before BUF lost their 4. Elway/DEN won 2 SBs a few years later. I moved to WNY in 96 & became a Bills fan in 03 when Kelsay was drafted from Nebraska. I often compare Allen & Elway, might just be because that’s who I know.

She was not concerned about the Bills game. 💙💔❤️
