I have always really enjoyed running and leading an active lifestyle. I joined the new Cross Country program during my Freshman year and am entering my third season of being the only girl on my team. Through running with boys that are much faster than I am, I have learned to push myself and work as hard as I can every day. I attended Steens Mountain High Altitude Running Camp in the summer of 2019 and gained some much-needed knowledge and experience. I am very dedicated in the classroom and have never settled for less than the best when it comes to my grades. I am very committed to my teammates and coach but I am also looking forward to the prospect of someday running with other girls. Running has shaped me into who I am and taught me valuable lessons about leadership, dedication, commitment, perseverance, the power of a positive attitude, and being a Godly example.
