Personal Statement
I love to run. I have from a young age, and have found an identity through my middle school and high school cross country and track programs. Running challenges me, empowers me, and keeps me balanced and centered. Running competitively at a college level has been a goal of mine as I have competed through my high school years. I am a 3 sport athlete and have learned to meet the demands of school, athletics and my social life all while maintaining high grades. I have high expectations for myself and those around me. I thrive in a team environment and enjoy the camaraderie of belonging to something bigger than myself. I run cross country in the fall, and sprints and hurdles in spring for track season. I am a versatile athlete that can run anything from a 100 to a 5k competitively. 5k, hurdles, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, and steeple chase are all areas that I would love to pursue.
