I started running track in 5th grade. The first year, I didn’t even make the team. I was crushed. But I kept working. After I got more exposure to the sport, I made the team and kept improving. Today, I run for Westview High School. I've competed in multiple events and grown not just as an athlete, but as a teammate and leader. I started Youth Runs because I want others to experience the same growth, joy, and confidence that track gave me.
