Hello, my name is Lillee Stewart and I am currently a distance runner at Spencerville High School, and am looking forward to continuing my running career at the college level.
I first discovered that I loved running when I was in middle school and the cross country coach convinced me to join the team. I found out that running was more that just a sport for me I was a way to relax, and think through my thoughts. Not only this but I discovered that the running community was great to be around, even when competing. This is the real reason I fell in love with running.Throughout my running career I have learned many things. First off I have learned how to be a leader (I was a team captain for all four years of high school). Also I learned that with hard work and dedication, your goals are very well reachable.
Academically I currently have a 4.0 and am ranked at the top of my class. I am hoping to keep it for the rest of high school. As I start my college search I would like a school that will push me academically, but also athletically . I would love to have a team that would support each other and also push each other. I believe that with my leadership, dedication, and determination I could be a very valuable member of your team.
