Keon Wallingford '19 Recruiting Profile

I want to keep improving, in all aspects of distance running. I feel like I have a lot of potential. I have improve steadily over the last years and significantly the past year.  By focusing my effort in the past year on a single sport my improvement has been eye opening. My sport history has shaped who I am as a athlete. My work ethic has improved throughout the years due to the many sports I participated in throughout my life, that has shaped me into the athlete I am today. My achievements have been very good considering I have never trained a full year because of the other sports I have played and the weather condition that I have lived in. Despite having snow and cold weather for half my life, my life in Canada has shaped me into the person that I am today, a hard working and dedicated individual both in my sports and my academics. My love for running has come from the fairness and sportsmanship that the sport offers as well as the felling of achievement you get when your pre-season goals come true and you run that PB you work so hard to accomplish.
