Quote:
"Cross country has been one of the most amazing experiences. It is more than just a sport. It is a way of life. I spend so much time with these girls and my coach that they are my family away from home. The bonds you make with people when you push yourself so much physically and mentally with them everyday are absolutely incredible."
