My new idol.

15 years old

The youngest to qualify for Wimbledon

Charm, grace, strength, humility, tenacity and wisdom that is beyond her years.

Coco Gauff - her parents should be super proud.

Roller Derby player hits 2018 Winter Olympics!

Guys, I play this little sport called roller derby (flat track).  Erin Jackson is this AMAZING speed skater who has only been training for speed skating on ice for four months.   She just made it onto the USA Olympic team for the 2018 Winter Olympics!  Guys.  I’m a nerd, with autism, diabetes, so many other things. I have played with, against, and reffed a true Olympian.   Aaaaaaaagh!!!!  This nerd will be watching her tear it up during the Olympics!

Henry Hawk recently celebrated his 77th birthday. As one of Arkansas most decorated track and field runners, Henry's life has largely been one of solitary, personal achievement. That is, until he heard of Robert Robinson's near total physical incapacity from a recent accident. Conventional medical wisdom said Robert would likely never as much as blink again.

Henry decided to lace up his inner running shoes and help Robert beat the odds. So began a life-affirming relationship between two, onethat unblinkingly confronts tragedy head-on, with eyes wide open and undaunted by the obstacles.

You know you're an artist when...

You find a mutilated bird wing on the ground during your workout and you stop everything to take pictures with your phone.
