All my life I have been involved in athletics. Being a part of a team and working towards higher performance has always been a key part of my life, but until my Junior year, I hadn't found what sport really defined and inspired me. Running hurdles in track has been life-changing, through this sport I have grown as a person on and off the track, I have found life-long friends, and it has helped me find the beauty in sports as a whole. I found my dream sport late in my high school career, and leaving it behind in college is unimaginable.
