Free spirit

 Being a student athlete can be tough, especially during final weeks and grade checks. I always struggled in silence, although my friends made me comfortable enough to share how I was feeling, if you are overwhelmed with school work, take some time for yourself, don't stress yourself out, you got this! And try and reach out for help if you need it. 

 While running during your meet, it can be a little discouraging when people pass you. Although do not let that stop you, see it as a learning opportunity. Focus on the person passing you, look at their running techniques, and try and find a way to match that technique.  It will be much easier and is a fun way to learn something new.
