Kayleigh Johnston '23 Recruiting Profile

Welcome!  My name is Kayleigh Johnston. I'm a sprinter who began participating in track in elementary school through the Old Town Summer Track Club and have consistently participated in the sport through the school system since middle school.  I recently began branching out from the shorter sprints to the 400 and have  believe that I have found "my event!"  I have run the outdoor 400  only a few times to-date and my most recent PR was 1:05:18.  I'm eager and determined to hone my 400 skills through focusing on strength training and building up my endurance.  I am a highly coachable and positive participant who has been chosen to lead my high school team as a captain while still a junior.  I love challenges and goals to strive for and thankfully track provides me with both!  Track is not my only passion.  I am a 9+ year soccer player who participates on my high school team as well as a travel team.  Not only do I have a passion for sports, but I also excel academically.  I have achieved highest honors every quarter and have been enrolled in all Honors/AP/CE courses throughout my high school career.  I am a member of the National Honor Society, I'm 7th in my class, and I have a weighted GPA of 102.49.  As I look to the future, I know that I want to work with children in some capacity.  I'm currently considering teaching, nursing, or some other medical career that would allow me to work with children.
