As a former softball player, running was viewed as a punishment. I spent the last 15 weeks training my body and mind to push myself to new limits. 13.1 miles later, I ran my first KDF Mini! A big shoutout to my family, friends, and all the random strangers who cheered me on!

Seatbelts save lives. Unfortunately... they don't save KitKats. 🍫 #IYKYK

Shout out to @WKYT for bringing us all together, and to Salt Lake City for hosting a great reunion.

LMPD has responded to and is assisting St. Matthews Police on a barricaded subject who reportedly fired shots inside a hospital room on Dutchmans Lane. There are no known injuries at this time. Please avoid the area due to a heavy police presence.

The producers of #BadBunny’s #SuperBowl halftime show explain the wedding sequence: “The engaged couple wound up with 15 extra wedding announcements, so they sent most to local businesses with the hope of maybe getting some free wedding perks. But the last invite? They were like, ‘Why don’t we send one to Bad Bunny? Lots of people send wedding invitations to him, so why not?’ Bad Bunny’s office reached out, and they thought, ‘Amazing, maybe we’ll get a signed photo.’ But they were invited to a Zoom call, which they thought was kind of weird. On the Zoom call, they learned the plan: Bad Bunny was inviting them to get married at the Super Bowl. "The couple had planned to make Bad Bunny’s ‘Baile Inolvidable’ their first dance. And so, they went from planning to play it at their wedding to being on the Super Bowl with him live, singing it. And with the bonus prize of Lady Gaga being the wedding singer as well." variety.com/2026/tv/news/b…

🚨NTI DAYS | After evaluating road conditions throughout the community, Wednesday, Jan. 28 and Thursday, Jan. 29, 2026, will be Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI) Days for JCPS students and staff. While our crews report that most main roads are in good shape, many side streets and neighborhood roads across the county remain hazardous. Due to these lingering conditions and low temperatures, we believe transitioning to NTI is the safest choice for our students and staff.

❄️SNOW DAYS | Due to snow and hazardous road conditions, Monday, Jan. 26 and Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2026 will be traditional snow days with no online learning. All after school athletic and extracurricular activities are canceled. If there are any changes to YMCA CEP, families will be notified by CEP.

Come ride with us down Broadway from the safety of your cell phone screen.

Did y’all just see @ChadHedrickKY win HUGE on Wheel of Fortune?!
