Riley loves that she gets to compete, meet new people, have the opportunity to win, push herself beyond what she thought she can do, and it keeps her busy.
My Cameron Brink, and Caitlin Clark and her mom. She loves Tara Woodhall, and got to meet her when Riley ran at the Nike Prefontaine Classic this year!
So many things! One of the best moments was when she played up a year for Basketball, making the highest level select team, starting out being a bench player and working her way up to starting. It took a lot of physical grit and determination. Also, this Spring, as a 6th grader, she had to step up to throwing a high school javelin in a specific meet due to the way they do age groups. She took the challenge head on and ended up winning 1st place either way a throw of over 99 ft.
