Personal Statement
My name is Lanae Carrington. I’m apart of the graduating class of 2024. The sport I do is Track and Field and I plan to get very far in Track. I would like to compete in Track at a collegiate level and even a pro level. While in college I would like to make it to NCAA’s and also win titles. My main goal within Track is to always improve on my times. What makes me a good candidate for college teams is that I’m more concerned on the process of getting better rather than the placing. I know that if I trust the process and work hard to get to where I want to be I can achieve the goals I have. Track has opened many doors for me in terms of challenging my limits and even racing people who are Olympians or who also compete at the collegiate level right now.
Outside of Track when I would want to major in Biology and become a Biomedical Researcher or Engineer. I chose this as my major because starting in the 9th grade when I took Biology my Biology teacher got me more interested in Biology and talked to me about the different areas of study within Biology. Academically I am a “Straight A” student and have been able to maintain these grades. I take Honors and AP classes as well. What makes me different from others in terms of character is that I’m a team player and always want to encourage others. I like the training and process of the sport rather than the placing. I would say that I am determined and hard working and want to get the best results that I can. I like to push myself to my limits and always give 100% effort in anything that I do.
