Running wasn’t a goal for me in my early stages. It was to condition me for the sport I thought I would further continue into college, which is soccer. As I began to practice more, I felt as though running was taking over my love for soccer. I began to put more dedication into running and I went from being last on my team to being our top runner. I have successfully made it to semi-state each year individually and want to achieve my dream goal of going to state next year. I love making new friends and meeting people who share the same love of running as I do. I also, try very hard in school and try to keep my grades where they should be, whilst juggling running at the same time
