There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits. -Michael Phelps
Whatever problems may exist, I have to help my team win a national championship. -Phillip Castillo
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have a promise to keep...and miles to go before I sleep. -Robert Frost

I will do whatever it takes to help my team, my school. and myself become the best we can be. I will not disobey the Word of Wisdom by taking supplements such as caffeine, coffee, or drugs. I do not complain and I do not swear. I will rise to any challenge, and get back up every time I fall. I know that it will hurt, but I know it will be worth it. The reward is greater than the pain I will face. I have my family's support, and they are why I run. I will do the hard work to be the best. Give it all to be one of the few.

I ran this every week from March to September of 2020. (total: 500 miles). I ran cross country my sophomore year . We were 2 points away from making it to state as a boys team. My best time was 19:12. I continued to run 4 miles a week after cross country and into track. I had my best track season (so far).
