That’s a wrap. 11 years working with so many Cuthbertson kids and families I love.. has come to an end Along the way we worked so hard for each other, and we helped each other grow in so many important ways. And we had so much fun doing it Thanks CAVS for an unforgettable run❤️

The most underrated leadership advantage? Kindness. Not charisma. Not dominance. Not authority. Kindness. It’s not soft. It’s strategic. Because the kindest leaders often create the most resilient teams. Why? Because kindness builds what metrics can’t measure: - Trust -

I haven't met a long distance runner that doesn't crush it at life. I'm not convinced running 26 miles is healthy, but you can't argue that it attracts total killers.

I believe the fundamental goal of coaching youth runners is to build a life-long love of the sport Looking back on the fall, it was heartening to see 15 CAVS Alumni currently running XC collegiately, with hundreds more continuing to run as a regular part of their daily lives💙💛

Endurance sport is mental training. You are alone in your head for long periods of time with ever increasing levels of discomfort. You have a concrete goal that half your mind is screaming to abandon. You repeat this day after day and have no option but to figure it out.

A reminder during election season: no politician is coming to save us Our success, first and foremost, depends on how we perform at home; in our families, jobs, churches, schools. Consistently adding value where we live is how we win Our vote matters, but not as much as that

Derek Jeter said, "It slows down when you're prepared and speeds up when you're unprepared." "Every time you're in a situation, I've already gone through it in my head." It means be intentional and consistent about how you prepare. 🎥@KrisGoodman_ https://t.co/TL6aWBwBkn

Over the past year away from coaching, I’ve enjoyed the conversations with coaches, athletes, parents who have reached out to talk running and program development Anyone building a team or working to develop their craft, my DM’s are open to share the things we learned

No one who got the outcomes you want used a hack or a shortcut to get them. Instead, they consistently made progress. You don’t build an empire in a day. You build it brick by brick. Day by day.

I believe there’s a legit case to be made that this is the greatest group of HS athletes in US History They currently own the American Record in every distance relay; DMR (‘24), 4x800 (‘23), and 4xMile (‘24). And they’ve won 7 National Championships in their incredible career💫

Baby girl, please know… You hang so much on your GPA. It’s good to care, but in my 30 years in business we never once hired / promoted a young professional because they had a 4.4 vs 4.0 Discipline, attitude, and a creative mind are the traits that matter. And you have them all

40 years as an all-in @Browns fan. From the roaring 80s through our 1-33 stretch decades later. Never missed a game, sick, I know But man, this season. Absolute joy ride! And tonight I got to watch them clinch together with Mom, Dad, and Bro. Thanks for this 🙏

This poem hit me hard... "Good timber does not grow with ease...By sun and cold, by rain and snow, in trees and men good timbers grow." Very, very good.
