“the best runners aren’t the ones who always do great, it’s the ones who get knocked down and come back stronger” -coach martin 🫡

ouch. being the first one out on Olympic trials finals by 0.01 seconds stings a lot. but that’s part of the sport. you gotta be your best on the day and I just didn’t put together my best race. I’m still grateful to be here and compete and supported by soooooo many people (no seriously, if I haven’t responded to you yet I’m so thankful) I might not have made it to the next round but I still can walk around knowing the love and desire I have to run and that shows just how far I’ve come, but I’m not done yet and now I get it’s time to pivot and really test my speed in the 1500m on Thursday night! 

also special thanks to @janetteschraft for reminding me my journey here is bigger than just one race or one person <3
