During Covid I didn’t do anything and I got fat from doing nothing staying at home just eating.Then when my sophomore year my mom put my in cross country and my first time was 22 minutes for 3 miles. within a few months and with the help of my old coach i worked as hard as I thought I could and ended up with an 18:04 by the end of the season.Then ran 2:20 in my 800, 5:07 in my mile, and 11:07 in my 2mile.but I wanted more it made me so made that I couldn’t break 5 so I kept pushing and got 16:45 as my best 3 mile junior year and knew I mad more to give. Track season started and I got 4:50 But new I could do better cause my competition didn’t push me enough and I won with lots of energy left.then I got injured A few days later and couldn’t race my next race and I was eager to get back.I got back after a week and raced the following week. I was expected to get almost last in both my races and I proved everyone wrong and stuck at the top and got boxed in and was only able to get 4:40 and fourth place in my mile and I was happy to have done so good but I knew I was still better than that. i also got 10:15 in my 2mile and was third place the same day and felt it was a good day but knew I had to put in a lot more work. and it only took me two weeks after my first race of the reason and know I can still do way better and want to hit 4:25 by the end Of the season But unfortunately I was only able to get 4:32. I also want to break 9:40 in my two mile but failed to hit that goal as well. even though I didn’t get my goals I was focused on the future and not the past. i have my eyes set on breaking the mile record of 4:12 and 2 mile at 9:12 for buena. I had these dreams for a while but over summer and this my senior year cross country season I’m training to make it a reality. i always expect more from myself and often im not happy with my times. I’ve already improved so much from last season but that’s not good enoug. my original goal this year was to break 15 but now I want more than that so I can also get the record for the 3 mile at buena. Ik what I’m asking of myself is a lot but Ik I can make it and nothing is gonna stop me. After most races I feel I didn’t do enough hearing everyone tell me good job when I want more from myself feeling it was a bad race even if I get a pr. Its almost never enough for me not until I become one of the best and can beat more and more people. and i don’t want these records to just say I have them but to inspire people that you can do anything u want if you Put your mind to it. And I also want them so I can leave my mark and be remembered to others.
