When did you start in the sport, and how did that happen?
 
I started running track in 7^th grade because of the encouragement of my older siblings. I had watched them run in high school and thought it was something I would like to try.
 
What do you enjoy most about the sport of track and field?
 
I love that being part of a track team challenges me to work hard every day and the reward that comes with it. It’s fun to be able to measure your progress by competing and breaking through personal records. I really enjoy running and the variety of events that track offers. And, of course, I love having a fantastic group of friends and teammates to train with! They always inspire me to do my best and run fast!
