He finishes 5.0 scoreless innings and waves to the crowd as they give him a rousing ovation. Cool opportunity for @IowaCubs fans this evening.
Justin Verlander has never been the winning pitcher in a Triple-A game in his career. He is one out away from likely changing that tonight against the Iowa Cubs. Toledo leads 13-0. Likely the last box to check for him to secure a future Hall of Fame selection.

Perfect night for an @IowaCubs game. Oh, and getting to see a future Hall of Famer pitch is pretty cool, too.

The state track meet is one of my favorite weekends of the year. This clip perfectly covers what makes it so special.

I thought this group was capable of running 7:50, but didn’t know if they could do it from the slow heat. They proved me wrong and ended up setting state record in the process. Record only lasted about 10 minutes as Pella reset the record in the 2nd heat.

Neither of these guys conceded anything to the other in the race. Once it was over, they congratulated each other knowing their competitiveness helped each of them run incredibly fast. The level of sportsmanship among competitors is one of my favorite things about this sport.

Intrigued by Marius Bakken’s 45/15 threshold model & thinking of ways to implement it w/ 30 member CC team of varying abilities. Initial thought is a 250-300 meter loop. Blow a whistle at 45 sec & group walks back to the start for the 15 sec rest. (1/2)

Most athletes have watches but feel like having a whistle is one less thing for the athletes to track. Trying to avoid having athletes on top of each other but still keeping them close to monitor efforts, etc. Thoughts @CoachDistance ?

What a weekend at Drake. 2 individuals in the 32 & 16, 1 in the 100, 1 in the 110H plus the 4x1 & 1600 Medley. Every athlete/relay that competed came away with a PR & also set 4 (5?) school records. Still plenty of work to do, but definitely gives us momentum moving forward.

Only through part 1 of this book but so far it is one of the better books I’ve read on training distance runners.

Such a privilege to coach along side her these past 18 seasons.
Coach Laura Kautman, THANK YOU for everything. To say you will be missed is maybe the understatement of the year. #GilbertPride #TigersTogether gilbertcsd.org/2026/02/the-e…

My watch hasn’t given me the “relax” reminder which makes me think that feature is not too accurate…..

Indiana football playing for the National title is something I only thought was possible in NCAA Football on my PS2….

Though if I’m being honest that probably wasn’t even a reality because I was awful at NCAA Football on the PlayStation.

While my passion for Indiana basketball has always been far greater than Indiana football, I do have evidence that I have been an Indiana football fan for more than just two years.
