Personal Statement
I have been running track since seventh grade and hope to continue throughout college. I am very competitive and love to see myself progress and my times get lower. I train hard and expect a lot out of myself which pushes me to be my best. I have the same mentality in the classroom, I put a lot of time into my studying and schoolwork so that I can get good grades. If I ever don't perform to my best ability, whether on the track or in school, I don't like living with the fact that I could've done better, which is why I put my all into everything I do. My goals are to become an overall better person. I want to develop myself into a better athlete while also maintaining good grades so I can get a good job after graduating.
