What are your plans after Lafayette?
After Lafayette, I plan to spend a year gaining patient experience as a medical assistant before applying to school to become a Physician’s Assistant.
What has been your favorite moment while competing for Lafayette?
My favorite moment competing for Lafayette was finally breaking 18 minutes in the 5K at the Bison Outdoor Classic. After suffering three stress fractures during my first three years of collegiate running, it took time to find a training approach that allowed me to perform at my best while staying healthy. My junior outdoor season was the first time I was able to train consistently without the setbacks of injury, so I went into the race not knowing what I was truly capable of. Crossing the finish line and seeing a 30-second personal best made all the hard work and perseverance worth it, and it was an incredibly rewarding reminder of how far I had come.
