Veronica Hargrave '22 Recruiting Profile

I’m a runner from Plainfield High School, In the future I want to be running for a college for cross country and track. I’ve been running since I was 7years old and I put most of my time and effort in running, I want to train as hard as I can to get better. I would do everything it takes to be on a team that is right for me. I can’t wait to see where my running takes me in the future!

I’m currently a junior at plainfield high school, I’m the second fastest girl in school history for the 5k(cross country). In 2020 during my cross country season I got my pr of 18:44 that time took me into the state meet which I got 22 in state and I got all-state! 

In track I didn’t have a season freshman year due to covid but I came back stronger than ever sophomore year, I’m currently running the 4x800, 4x400, 1600,800. But my “main” event I train for is the 1600 and 800. During my season sophomore year I got my pr of 5:09 in the mile and during state for the 800 I got my pr of 2:15 which lead me to be 10th in state. I’m hoping to train extra hard this year to make it under 5 minutes for the mile and go to state for it too!
