I started cross country and track in 10th grade and love it (I don't necessarily count my 7th grade year, as I didn't take it that serious and quickly transitioned to soccer). Because of my love for the sport, I am ready and know that I have a lot of potential to get faster and build on my endurance. As a college runner, I plan to seize every opportunity possible to becoming the best runner I can be and learn as much as I can about the sport. (I placed 5th at state this year.)
