The love for Cross Country and Track means a lot to me. When I was little I played basketball then I stopped playing, and started running. With the help from my coaches, parents and family they have always pushed me to do my very best. As the oldest of my three little brothers I am the only runner. My mom has been coaching me because she was a top runner for Gallup High School she wants me to be one too. I want to be able to prove my family I am not where I am without them. What makes me a good candidate for their team is to be able to call myself a teammate. And to help and support my teammates. What makes me different is I work as hard as everyone but I continue to work hard every day. And continue to keep motivating my little brothers. And for them to see me as their role model to go to college. And prove to people that have doubted that I can do it.
