Personal:

Born again Christian. I have been a type 1 diabetic since 2015 and celiac since 2018, and even though I have had my struggles with it, I still strive to live a healthy life. Senior at Utah State University studying Health Science. Hoping to go into pharmaceuticals and focus on diabetic supplies and medicine, because I am quite passionate about helping those that have the same medical condition as I do.

Warmed up for about a mile then did some drills. Blood sugar was really high again and I really haven't had a race where I have been satisfied with my results. In the race today from the first 100m I knew this race wasn't going to be good. My legs kept feeling right and I just felt really sluggish, and Jordan knocked me off of varsity which really ticked me off. I just hope I still have the motivation to keep doing this crosscountry stuff, because I am really not liking it anymore!!! But I guess I will see what happens the rest of this season and how next race goes at Wasatch Rendevous.

"It isn't about how hard you can hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward, how much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done"

Do the little things, XC can and will be awesome if you keep improving by doing the little things that make you a better runner. Be consistent and focus on giving your best each day, what ever it is that day. Everyday is not as good as the next but breakthrough's are made by this consistency. Have fun and stick it out for your team but most of all for you.
