South Warren


What was your most memorable meet and why?

The State Track Meet my junior year. The team and I got third in the 4x800 meter relay and we ran an 8:04, breaking our school record.


Where did you face your biggest competition?

At Eastern Relays my junior year.


Out of all of your high school accomplishments which stands out the most and why?

When I ran 16:08 at the 5K Showdown my junior year because the whole race felt great and I had a ton of fun with the race.


If you could do it all over again what would you change about your running career in high school?

​I would try and focus more on cross country because I never really had a great cross country season.


What were the most difficult obstacles you had to overcome?

​I think the biggest one I have had to overcome is my asthma, but it is not too bad, so I have not had a ton of obstacles to overcome.


What will you miss the most?

I will miss putting in miles with all of my best friends and enjoying the high school training sessions.


Do you have any advice for younger athletes?

Do not psych yourself out too much before a race, it does not help you at all.


What are your post-high school or college plans?

​I plan to attend University of the Cumberlands to run and I plan to major in either exercise sciences or biology in hopes of becoming an occupational therapist.


Who would you like to say thank you to?

I would like to thank God, my family, my coach, and all of my friends and training partners
