Personal Statement
I am a 5’9’’ high school senior runner from Vicksburg, MI. I’ve been running since sixth grade, and have never lost interest. I had some injury issues that I had to deal with last year in 2011, but with determination, I was able to come back strong from those adversities. My Cross Country Coach named me MVP for the past two years. I recently earned All-State Honors in Cross Country. I ran the Michigan qualifying Mid East Regional race and came in 15th. I’m an extremely hard worker. Nothing really comes easy for me, so I learned how to work hard for everything that I have. I’m interested in going into the Accounting field and I’m also a hard worker in the classroom. I look forward to attending a 4-year college, but I also want the experience in running at the collegiate level.
