Anthony Munoz '22 Recruiting Profile

Hello I'm Anthony but the team calls me Shades. I was never a runner but I loved the lifestyle as soon as I joined because whenever it was time to beat my friends in a race, I always loved it. So I kept started running competitively my freshman year. And I promised myself that I will be the first one to break 2 minutes in the 800 at my school. My parents always worked hard to make our life worry free so I want to make them happy by making my dreams come true. Since I've started running Cross Country and Track I have learned its always good to have people around you to push you and make each other stronger competitors even though I wasn't the type of guy to be with a team. Some of my academic goals in the next 6 years are to study harder and to finish high school with a good GPA. Also to show my teachers even though I can be lazy sometimes I can give my best effort like my running career. 

• One obstacle I had to face was me not improving. I asked my coaches for tips and thats when they advised me to work on the smaller things such as strength and flexibility. After that, I improved continuously throughout the 2020 winter season. It also further extended my injury-free career. Some characteristics that others and I think possess are I can be independent, funny when it's appropriate and serious when it's ever needed. A skill I am sure I possess is to always take advice that will help me improve and make me better to put up a fight with my competition. I just want to be the best I can be by the time its time to pick a school to pursue a degree in Engineering and take my running to the next level. What I'm trying to say is, if I want something, I'll go for it!
