.@reredevaux has entered two Triple Crown races in her training career. She’s won them both. This is like winning the Masters and the U.S. Open in your first appearances. https://t.co/UG2TZjRGxK

Today was Donna Brothers' final time covering the Kentucky Derby for NBC. Before the race, Cherie DeVaux said "it is an honor that you get to do your last walkover with me."

Brothers told DeVaux, "I'm hoping you become the first female trainer to win the Kentucky Derby."

It’s why Coach Glenn McIntosh was so huge in our success. Glenn did this for us. It’s why we won.

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Mark Few explains the process Gonzaga uses to work on mental toughness and adversity.

"We spend probably 25-30% of the athlete's time now on mental."

Then he explained what that looks like: "We do this thing called PGMs - Personal Growth Mondays."

"We start every Monday with this Personal Growth Monday. Staff, myself, coaches aren't allowed in there. It's just the players and Travis Knight, our strength coach and mental coach."

They invest the time every week. You can't let the mental game be an afterthought.

"They can dive into a myriad of anything that's currently happening or that they've requested...Processing pressure. Processing expectations. Lack of confidence. Hitting adversity. Handling success."

The best teams train the mind, the body, and develop the person.

Your mind is affected by your daily thoughts, habits and unconscious biases.

Mental fitness helps you build resilience and thrive.

Without investing time in mental fitness, managing stress, anxiety, and challenges becomes harder.

With one last gasp, Jesus said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit “. Good Friday is here, but Sunday is coming.

[SNY UConn Women’s Basketball @SNYUConn]

Azzi Fudd shares her advice to young girls looking to develop their game:

"I feel like a lot of times, people are so focused on workouts and specific moves and drills instead of just playing free, playing pickup, playing one-on-one and working on your game and your skills."

[Billy Graham @BillyGraham]

“Christ often comes in our darkest hour, bringing joy, peace, and glory like nothing else,” said Billy Graham.

As we approach Christmas, reflect on the night Jesus was born—a time marked by spiritual and moral darkness. Yet into that darkness, Christ brought light. That same light continues to bring hope, peace, and new life today. As you prepare your heart for Christmas, be encouraged that Jesus still meets us in our darkest moments. https://t.co/01aqLFGyxH
