Most Memorable Race:

When I finally broke 5 in the mile. It was my first post-collegiate track "season" and I had just failed the week before in a more competitve race running 5:10. I was back at U of I for Club Relays and it was my last chance to go for it. I ran solo for the whole thing and about halfway through the Armory crowd realized what was happening and the atmosphere was absolutely amazing. Crossing the line and seeing the big clock stop at 4:59 was so satisfying - just one of the best race memories I have. Lots of congrats from everyone after, too.

Running Start:

My friend from middle school begged me to join high school cross country the day before it started. I knew I wanted to do track in the spring so I gave in. Thanks Casey!

Fun Facts:

I was a sprinter in high school, 3x all-state in the 4x400!
I lived in Galway, Ireland for a year and a half.
I have a cat named Midge @miraclemidge.
