Get To Know the Athlete:
How old were you when you started playing your sport?
I first ran cross country in 7th grade at age 12, then played different sports for 8th grade through my first year of college, and now, 9 years later I am back to cross country!
What is your favorite Bible verse and why?
Lamentations 3:21-32 It is so comforting to know that know matter how circumstances may change or how things may go wrong, God never changes and will never fail me. He is always faithful and steadfast. No matter what, I can have hope in the waiting!
What’s your favorite part about the sport you play?
My teammates are the bomb.com! They make running miles and miles in the rain worth it. I also love that it is so easy to see your progress and that there is always room to progress; you can always run faster, so you always have a goal to work towards.
During Covid-19, did you pick up any new hobbies?
I got into weightlifting for a while and brushed up on my piano skills. I also worked on a lot of backyard projects since my backyard was the closest I could get to spending time out of my house during quarantine!
