Sad News

I learned this weekend of the loss of a wonderful friend, Abraham Yacob. I had the pleasure of meeting Abe when he attended a running camp I was working, and he distinguished himself as both an exceptionally talented athlete, and as a wonderful, kind and enthusiastic person.  As a Coach at running camp, I often meet phenomenal young people, and even among this group, Abe really stood out, and we remained in regular contact.  Sadly, Abe passed away this weekend, a few months before the end of his senior year in high school.  He was a wonderful person, his death a tragedy, and he will be missed.
