During his career, Mills made mistakes and had his heart broken, but he now has no regrets. I tried hard and made friends all over the world. Mills met his wife, Wendy, at his first job out of college. He was trying to sell insurance and met her through a work lunch. They dated for 11 months before getting married in January 1987.
Mills is now a graphic designer, creating ads and billboards for businesses.
He and Wendy have two children, Kyle and Samantha, both five years old. His coaching career started when he became the assistant coach at Cleveland State University. He began coaching the Heights boys' and girls' teams last year. As a coach, he wants everyone to achieve best times of their career. He really can help us prepare for our races because he was in our shoes at one time.
