Quote:
"The prospect of being able to continue running competitively is one of the things that tipped the balance in favor of Emory in my college decision process. I have not been disappointed. Running keeps me focused and has helped me avoid the dreaded "freshman 15". It is exciting to be part of such a succesful program and to strive every day and every race to contribute to the team."
