What I've always wanted to say is...

What I've always wanted to ssay is... TRACK IS LIFE!! Without track I don't know what I'd be doing to keep myself occupied on a daily basis. I feel like track has kept me out of a lot of trouble in the past because I like it so much. Track has become more of an outlet for me as I've become older, wiser, and more mature through the years. Whenever I get too bored to bear and I feel like there's nothing to do, I remember that I can always go run and get a good workout in. Whenever I am at school and I feel myself starting to slack off with my school work I think about all of the opportunities that I could be wasting to go run college track and it makes me pick up the pace and work harder.

I think that going running on a track is the best stress reliever. I say this because whenever I've had a bad day, I can just go out and run and forget about all of my stress for a little while. Whenever things aren't going too well for me I can always go running to clear my head. Another thing that I like about track is the anticipation and anxiety that I feel right before a race. I get the butterflies and my stomach starts to hurt a little bit.. I try to think of everything that could motivate me to win. Also I try to zone out everyone and everything that could distract me and make me lose my focus. The only thing I focus on is winning my event, giving full effort, and running the best possible time that I can run.

I hope that one day I can get the opportunity to run track at the collegiate level for a division 1 college, because I want to be able to run track for as long as I can. I'm willing to make sacrifices and take chances so that I can be successful at track. I feel like track is one of the best sports ever created. Whenever I step onto the track I feel all the worries of the world just slip away from my mind. I am completely free of stress...
