Hi my name is Nick Hecht, I have been mostly raised in Alaska, been all over the state. Running is my life and my collegiate goals are to pursue my dreams of being the best athlete I can possibly be. Given my location it is not only hard to get good quality training into the books, but just living in such an extreme environment makes a difficult lifestyle. Because of my motivation even when conditions are as bad as they can be, it has made me a very hard working athlete even when conditions are best.
