This young man went from the overlooked unattached guy, living in coach’s basement, training at the local middle school in the cold…to running for his country on one of the biggest stages.
I couldn’t be more proud as a coach and as a friend.
Let’s keep going 🔥❤️

Think you could get dropped by your sponsor after winning an Olympic 🥈?
That's what happened to Daniel Roberts
He opens up about living off grants and prize money for the last 6 months after taking home 🥈 in the 110mh last summer
It shows how important it is to build a brand
One of the hardest parts of coaching?
Seeing someone’s potential—clear as day—and realizing they can’t see it themselves.
No matter what you say, it doesn’t land.
Now imagine the same situation as a parent.
The stakes are higher, the tools fewer.
You can’t force motivation. You can’t make someone care.
But you can plant seeds. Here's how:
Losing hurts because we care. That's the curse of being passionate. It comes with extreme highs and lows. The key lies in being able to move on from the lows. Refocus and get back to what matters, doing the work.
Talk about a race!
The Top 4 in Heat 2 of the men’s 60m were separated by only .005 seconds, and it’s Team USA’s Coby Hilton who comes out on top in 6.693🤏
Insecurity is loud.
Courage & Honor are shown through quiet actions.
The former is performative, a child screaming look at me & picking fake fights to show you're 'tough'
Courage is about doing. Being in the arena & wrestling with the messiness while holding on to your values
What a moment for @cobyhilton today! Congratulations to you and your team of coaches and supporters! Next stop, China for World Indoor Championships! 🏃 Let’s go!!!
@wldathleticshub 🇺🇸 Wow! A US vest for Coby Hilton
What a story, an unsponsored athlete who has stayed with his coach for the last two years to pursue his career as a professional Sprinter.
Amazing, it’s all paying off
