How did you get started as a track or cross country athlete? 

 My mom made me pick a spring sport freshmen year so I did track and loved it so I continued into xc!  


What was your most memorable competition? 

 The Farmington cowbell Classic Xc meet, it was extremely muddy and our team was able to win!


What was your greatest accomplishment as a track/xc athlete? 

Cutting 28 seconds off my mile from last year. 


What was your most memorable non competition moment as a track athlete? 

 The post run swims after summer runs in the lake, one time we swam out super far and were extremely tired after it. 


If you could do it all over again what would you change? 

 I just wish I started running earlier!


How have your coaches been an influence to you? 

 They have been great role models for me. Coach Ermisch and Zeller have helped me develop a love for the sport that I never knew I'd have.


What are your post-graduation plans?

 Run XC and track at UW Eau Claire! 


Who would you like to say thank you to?

My mom for making me start running!
