"When you reach that big hill halfway through a race, your legs are screaming at you to stop, and your lungs are about to burst; That is when you reach deep inside yourself to find something to push you foward. The girls here at Emory push each other every day to dig deeper than we have ever before. They amaze me with their abilities and inspire me to move foward with every painful step."
