Literally. His always-full schedule of classes focused on materials and engineering principles, labs, and internships. Much the rest of his time was spent on both the cross country and track teams. Zabrodsky loved running, being a part of those teams, and being coached by Tim Hale.<\/p>\n<p>A few years ago, Zabrodsky started rallying former teammates with an idea\u2014to establish the Timothy G. Hale Endowment for Competitive Excellence as a way to honor a man who influenced so many lives. Now established, the fund honors Coach Hale\u2019s legacy while providing programmatic support\u2014in perpetuity\u2014for both the track and field and cross country teams. The Athletics department uses it to build upon a tradition of excellence within these programs and to support the opportunity for our athletes to compete against high-level competition at meets such as the Penn Relays, Raleigh Relays, and the Colonial Relays.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCoach Hale helped put these running programs on the map and, today, Coach Sam Albert is continuing that legacy,\u201d says Zabrodsky, managing director of Advanced Manufacturing Technology, a Jamestown, N.Y.-based manufacturing systems company that he founded in 1989. \u201cThis fund helps the women\u2019s and men\u2019s teams remain competitive and viable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zabrodsky, who was inducted into the Rochester Athletics Hall of Fame in 1999, encourages alumni to get involved. \u201cThe more we can collectively contribute to the fund, the more we can do for Rochester\u2019s students,\u201d he adds. \u201cOur combined generosity directly impacts these programs, their future, and the experiences these young athletes will have. I\u2019m sincerely honored to be a part of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zabrodsky, who has cultivated a love for running among his family members, offers the following insights on this competitive and individual sport.<\/p>\n<h3>A family affair<\/h3>\n<p>Abby Zabrodsky \u201914, \u201919S (MBA) ran for the Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ as an undergraduate. Olivia, ran for Case Western. Zabrodsky\u2019s wife, Kristy, is a lifelong runner, too. \u201cOlivia always liked to run far, while Abby liked to go fast,\u201d he says, remembering family vacations that always involved running on the beach. \u201cI\u2019d always be trying to keep pace with the kids while Kristy tried to keep the peace.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The run around<\/h3>\n<p>For the longest time, Zabrodsky would wake up around 5:30 a.m. and run part of the distance close to Chautauqua Lake near his home. An ankle injury during COVID has taken him off that path and onto his indoor trainer, which still gets his heart pumping. Always active, he and his family enjoy running, hiking, and backpacking. In 2019, they adventured rim-to-rim in the Grand Canyon, and, in 2016, they trekked throughout Iceland.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_45602\" style=\"width: 177px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-45602\" class=\"wp-image-45602 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/adv\/alumni-news-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Zabrodsky-black-and-white-167x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"167\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/adv\/alumni-news-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Zabrodsky-black-and-white-167x300.jpg 167w, https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/adv\/alumni-news-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Zabrodsky-black-and-white.jpg 477w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 167px) 100vw, 167px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-45602\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Zabrodsky during his college days<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Getting started<\/h3>\n<p>Zabrodsky started running as a kid. \u201cIf you\u2019re fast, it happens,\u201d he says. In high school, he ran track and cross country as well as played organized baseball. At Rochester, he was part of the team that ranked in the top 10 at the NCAA Division III National Cross Country meet, which the University hosted. Zabrodsky was also captain of both teams for two years. He had the distinct experience of running events from the 100 meters through the 10K for Rochester, too\u2014but not on the same day, he underscores.<\/p>\n<h3>Team spirit<\/h3>\n<p>Zabrodsky notes how the fund has created a strong alumni team spirit. \u201cThis fund has brought together many of us who ran together years ago, and it has created a link among us all, as we share the common experience of having been coached by Coach Hale,\u201d he says. \u201cWhether we knew each other as classmates back-in-the-day or we met in the years since, it doesn\u2019t matter\u2014there a bond here now. And we all want to do something for the coach and the teams that did so much for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Remembering when<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cEveryone has their own Coach Hale memories,\u201d Zabrodsky says. \u201cWe weren\u2019t scholarship athletes, and everyone always knew that academics came first. Coach Hale made running fun, yet he always got right down to business, and his successes were legendary. We knew what he expected from us, which included focus, discipline, performance, and excellence. To this day, I draw on all I learned from running and from Coach Hale.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Good times<\/h3>\n<p>Coach Hale always had an open door policy. Throughout all hours of the day, students were in his office engaged in lively discussions. Zabrodsky notes that they pondered far-ranging questions such as \u201cWho\u2019s better: Coe or Ovett?\u201d\u2014which is often debated in running circles\u2014and \u201cWhat is the probability that we weren\u2019t really behind the wheel of the team van according to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle?\u201d Adds Zabrodsky, \u201cWhen the topics were more serious in nature, Coach Hale consistently demonstrated his exceptional skills as a wise and trusted advisor. He always had an entertaining and insightful story or lesson or coaching point to add, too.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Style and substance<\/h3>\n<p>Coach Hale\u2019s conversational style and wit were memorable, calming, and legendary, especially for young people who were likely away from home for the first times in their lives. \u201cHe demanded a lot from his athletes,\u201d Zabrodsky says. \u201cAt the same time, he gave so much to the people he coached and\u2014just as importantly\u2014mentored. For all of these rare qualities, we continue to honor him and his legacy with the Hale Endowment Fund.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;25px&#8221; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#e9e5d7&#8243; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;25px&#8221; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>Join us<\/h3>\n<p>Contact\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/adv\/alumni-news-media\/2022\/01\/25\/7-with-coach-serra-sevenler-15\/tgurnett@ur.rochester.edu\">Terry Gurnett<\/a>, associate director of Athletics, to learn how you can support the Timothy G.
