Losing My Job Was The Best Thing To Happen To Me:  Entrepreneur Life

2/20/2023

Comments

 
It's probably safe to say that most people are afraid to "jump out there" and start a business or follow their passions.
We have spoken to several entrepreneurs over the years and in our experience, most people only "jump out there" after their cirucmstances changed such as an involuntary loss of a job. 
With that change in circumstances, life can become very scary and sometimes you have to take the opportunity to try something new.  
That's exactly what Jai of Krush By Jai did.

Runners Will Chase Historic Times at 2023 Publix Atlanta Half Marathon

2/16/2023

Comments

 
Atlanta Track Club
From: Atlanta Track Club
Bonus Money Available for Fastest Time Ever Run in Georgia​
ATLANTA – February 16, 2023 – A run for records will take place at the Publix Atlanta Half Marathon next week where some of the world’s best runners will attempt to complete the fastest half marathon ever run in the state of Georgia. This year’s elite field features eight men who have run faster than the current men’s record of 1:00:36 and four women who have run faster than the women’s record of 1:08:22. Both times were set at this event in 2022.
 
Nicholas Kosimbei will return to Atlanta to defend his title and his record. The 26-year-old from Kenya dominated last year’s race which was held in the driving rain, winning by more than two minutes. Fellow Kenyans Raymond Magut and Goeffrey Koech who placed second and third respectively last year are also returning. Magut boasts a personal best of 1:00:00 while Koech has broken the one-hour mark with a career best of 59:36. Koech won his most recent half marathon, the B.A.A.Half Marathon in Boston last November.
​Other top contenders include Tsegay Kidanu (Ethiopia, 59:39),  Josphat Tanui (Kenya, 59:40), Phenus Kipleting (Kenya, 1:00:08) and Bethwell Yegon (Kenya, 1:00:57), the runner-up at the 2021 BMW Berlin Marathon.
 
With last year’s winner Dorcas Tuitoek not returning in 2023, a new face will break the tape to win the women’s title. The fastest woman in the field is Kenya’s Cynthia Jerotich. Jerotich was a dominant force on the roads from 2013 to 2016, setting a half marathon personal best of 1:06:04 and winning a silver medal at the World Half Marathon Championships in 2016. Jerotich stepped away from racing in 2017 and gave birth to three children before returning to competition last year. At 33, she will be looking to return to the form that saw her winning road races around the world including some of the most prestigious events in the United States. 
 
Jerotich will face Helah Kiprop, the winner of last year’s Copenhagen Marathon and the runner-up at the Frankfort Marathon. Kirprop, a 2016 Olympian from Kenya, has a half marathon personal best of 1:07:39. Also among the fastest in the field are 2017 Houston Half Marathon winner Veronica Wanjiru (Kenya, 1:07:58) and Vibian Chepkirui (1:08:02). Chepkirui won the Vienna Marathon last year in a course record time of 2:20:59.
 
Athletes in the 2023 Publix Atlanta Half Marathon will be competing for a $22,000 prize purse including a first place prize of $4,000. There is an additional $2,500 bonus for the male or female winner who sets the course and Georgia all-time record. Full elite fields can be found below. The race will be streamed live on Atlanta Track Club’s YouTube page with commentary from Chris Chavez, Carrie Tollefson and Ali Feller. 

Part of Atlanta’s Marathon Weekend, more than 8,500 runners will take part in the Marathon, Half Marathon, 5K and Kids’ Races held February 25-26 at Centennial Olympic Park. The weekend will also feature the USATF Masters 5km Championship which will be held in conjunction with the Publix Atlanta 5K on Saturday, February 25.

We recently spoke with saxophonist Dexter Tolson who is not only a veteran of the US Army but also a great example of determination.
We hope that as you view this 'What Do YOU Speak?' segment that you are empowered, encouraged, and determined to reach your dreams as well......

Turn Your Hat From Flab to FAB

12/18/2022

Hey ya'll this is going to be a really short blog....I really just wanted to share with you the beautiful hat that I created for a party.  
Each year, a friend of mine hosts a holiday party. Each year, she has a different theme.  
For 2022, she wanted everyone to wear white or off white, and gold.
You know Jermaine Sain (ME) couldn't just show up in the colors without a statement piece.  That's when I came up with my idea of decorating a hat.  

So....did I get it right?
