I have always been discouraged saying to my self to give up that I am a failure but I always got up no matter how hard life hit me life got harder my right after Sophomore year when my father got deported and me and my older brother had to pay the bills even though I was still running track each day was a struggle school,track practice then go to work everyday. My Junior year of high school I started doubting if track was worth it that I wasn't going to be fast enough to qualify for a scholarship which started affecting my grades going from A's to B's & C's I overcame this part and trained twice as hard after this no matter how hard life got I kept pushing, I am not the most academic but I train harder then most.
