Why did you choose Lafayette?
I chose Lafayette because it simultaneously offers a strong academic focus and a tight-knit running community.

What is your favorite event in track? Why?
My favorite event in track is the 3200m because it requires a lot of patience and mental toughness. In order to succeed, 3200m runners need to conserve their energy wisely and make a move at the right time.
