She loves the competitiveness in running track. She doesn’t have to depend on a team to compete and she loves the excitement of the crowd cheering on the kids.
Besides her mom of course lol she really loves Shacarri Richardson. She loves the way she runs and how she trains to get better after a bad race.
My daughter just started running track in 2023 when she was 7 and made it to her first Junior Olympics. Despite her medical issues she has worked hard to keep getting better.
