What inspired you to become an athlete?
I don’t know. I’ve always felt good about keeping up on my fitness and keeping it nice. It’s fun, I think, to compete athletically.
Is there a reason why you chose running?
No, I was trying out a lot of sports and I just kind of liked running so I just kept with it.
Based on this season, what are your expectations?
I don’t really have any expectations for next year since it’s so far away, but I was hoping I can continue to stay healthy and then work as hard as I can and hopefully do better next year.
