Personal Statement
My name is Hakeem Mustafaa, I started running when I was just 13 years old. When I started running and realized that it was something I was good at, it opened my eyes and showed me that I could do anything as long as I put my mind,body, and soul to it. Also it showed me how competitive I was and how I should stride to be the best, not only at running, but in life too. Sometimes when I don't do good in a race, it teaches me to work hard to correct those mistakes, and one thing I love is hard work because the more work you do, the best will come. One thing that I live and breathe for is my goals, mainly because I want to be a great person in the future and show people that if you have a goal, you can do it as long as you apply your life and time to it.
