Greatness takes time. Gags understood that.❤️
Looking back at Frank Gagliano's reminder that every athlete needs patience in their development. Keep showing up, keep learning, and give yourself time to grow.
Remembering Gags through the wisdom he shared and the runners he inspired.

Frank "Gags" Gagliano, the legendary coach who developed numerous top-tier collegians and Olympians, has died at the age of 89.
At the NCAA level, Gagliano coached at programs such as Manhattan (assistant), Rutgers (assistant) and Georgetown.
During his 16 years as the head coach of Georgetown (18 years in total), the Hoya men won 23 BIG East Championship titles, produced 140 All-Americans and won seven NCAA individual titles.
At the pro level, Gagliano led, helped and pioneered the creation of multiple elite training groups such as Nike Farm Team, Reebok Enclave and Oregon Track Club. He was also the longtime head coach of New Jersey-New York Track Club.
In 2003, he was inducted into the @ustfccca Hall of Fame.
A true giant of the sport. Rest in peace to legendary Georgetown Track & Field/Cross Country coach Frank “Gags” Gagliano. His legacy lives on through the countless lives, champions and Olympians he shaped both on and off the track. 💙🩶
