Coach Kim Turner — “Coach McKenzie” to me — didn’t just coach hurdlers. She coached human beings. From our first bag-lunch talks by Lake San Luis to the moments she guided me through trouble, heartbreak, and adulthood itself, she shaped uncertain young people into confident, accomplished leaders.

Franny and Ghost may be small, but their meals are mighty.

If you’ve ever wanted to feed your pups real food that’s budget-friendly, freezer-ready, and tail-wagging approved, this is the recipe for you.

This Blackened Salmon with Shrimp and Creamy Garlic Spinach is a bold, restaurant-worthy meal elevated with Dubbs-style twists. Garlic confit, Lawry’s seasoning salt, hot honey shrimp, and tangy sour cream mashed potatoes transform this classic into the ultimate seafood feast.
On Day 27 of my #JustDoTen challenge, I honored my parents’ 52nd anniversary, renewed my challenge to Sean Pittman, and called out two giants — Shannon Baker and Oscar McBride — to give me ten. The mirror shows progress, the scale confirms change, and the journey continues. Ten reps at a time, I’m chiseling myself into the man I’m meant to be.
