About me: 
I am a sophomore in high school and have been running since the summer before my 7th grade year. And have run every race known to man, from the 100 meter dash to local 5ks. I still haven't found what "my race" is yet. But hoping to one day (preferably soon). I would love to run a marathon before I turn sixteen, but because of the lengthy 6-month training (which would force me to give up track or cross-country) and age requirements, I can't. Still on my list of things to do before I die, though. My other interests lie within sports medicine, physical therapy, sports physiology, interior design, and or graphic design.
Why do I run: 
Running is kind of like my physical high. It's addicting, motivating, and so many other things I can't describe. It allows me to physically let out those little frustrations throughout the day. One of the other reasons why I run, is because it's something I have control over. I don't have to blame bad results on a teammate or a coach, I am the one running. I don't have to rely on a group of people for sucess. With the strength of the Lord and hard work, I can achieve whatever I set my mind to.
Why I started running: 
I don't even know why I started running. Someone encouraged me to go out for a summer track program after seeing me run at my elementary. So I did. I was hooked and haven't stopped since.
