Hello Coaches, my name is Ryan. I am currently a Junior attending Nutley High School, NJ, graduating class of 2024. I started running Cross Country as a Freshman and fell in love with the sport. By the end of the fall season, I realized I wanted to run competitively. I run year round in either cross country or track. I also train with a personal trainer and run on my own to improve my strength and endurance which has helped me improve dramatically this season. In addition to sports, I also volunteer for various functions, participate in the Interact Club, and take multiple honors/AP classes. All of this hard work paid off because my times continue to improve. I am still hungry for more improvement and will continue to push myself every day to obtain my personal goals and dream of one day competing at the collegiate level.
