State 3200mPersonal Statement
As a first-time runner this year, I have high aspirations for the future. I am determined to have even faster times next year and to continue improving throughout my college years as well. Not only do I have great expectations for my running career, but for my college education too. I strive to be accepted by a strong academic university with running that fits my skill level. Whatever I do, whether it be: sports, academics, charity work, or manual labor, I give my all and endeavor to be the best.
Many describe me as a natural leader; growing up with three younger siblings has definitely assisted the development my leadership skills. I work hard to ensure the comfort of those surrounding me, and strive to encourage everyone to be the best person, athlete, or student they can be. I consider myself to be a quick and flexible learner, and eagerly heed the direction of coaches, teachers, and other authorities in order to improve myself.
Thank you for taking the time to examine my profile. I hope you will consider me for a spot on your team!
