Prime Athlete To Become Prized Doctor
This lady came to this small town in 1984 hoping to become a world class runner and an Olympic competitor
. Within four short years, her greenish brown eyes were able to capture everything.She was able to attain sixth place in the Seoul Korea Olympics held in 1988 for the women's 3,000 meter run.
Finally this young world class runner finished her studies in her local high school last December.
At age 23, she is considered the next queen of American middle distance running, has signed a three year deal to run for a well known shoe manufacturer.
But then she chose to remain here right in Delaware for now. While working out regularly, she also makes sure she courses the campus environs.
This stunning runner at 5 foot 6 and 110 pounds flies towards her own finish line and it seems like her feet don't even touch the ground she flies on.
She becomes quite fidgety with the thought of fame especially when people chase her for her autograph.
She is such a humble young girl who claims to be a normal person she gets bothered when she gets special treatment.
She is truly beyond average even when she comes off as a normal girl. She is the first Olympian in her town.
She currently has her hands on four American collegiate records and is also one of the members of seven world record relay teams.
At school, she was the one responsible for her team's eight individual NCAA championship title wins and that's not all for they were also able to bag 14 Big East championship titles.
She has also driven herself to achieve a lot of the bigger honors.
Now being able to put collegiate competition behind her, she and her track coach in school carefully begin assessing her running career.
Since she is seeing a huge transformation, she needs to make a lot of mental adjustments. Only people who have gone through such experiences can truly grasp this.
There is so much pressure driving her to become a great runner but most of this comes from her own self.
She worries about getting injured while she is still within the three year contract after the famous shoe firm got her to represent them.
Thanks to people's great expectations of her, she's become more uneasy than she was in the past collegiate games she competed in.
Now that she's gone, a lot of people ask what will happen to the local women's track team now. She assures them that they are a great team.
She truly holds her privacy dear with the pressure, notoriety and responsibilities all around her. Even within their home, her parents and siblings all had to adjust to the fact that they are now recognized to be related to her.
Though her parents were supportive, they were never pushy for they were also laid back.
You would be surprised and envious of the company she keeps, thanks to her stardom. The elite groups of athletes we look up to and watch on TV are her friends.
She does name drop but does so with true concern for the people with whom she shares this connection.
A good instance would be was that she said that the last time that she had seen a colleague was during the last Olympics where they competed together, when asked more about the other runner she was on tour with in Hawaii.
She shares that it was so cool to spend time with him for three days, talking about the past and having fun.
She doesn't seem to run out of things to do even as she shares that she's got more time than she'd like.
Apart from her usual workouts as a runner, she also has to attend certain parties, interviews, features, track meets and photo sessions being the public figure that she is.
On top of it all, this generous lady will share her time and abilities by being a volunteer assistant coach at their local school.
In keeping up with the medical aspiration she has put on hold, she also aims to volunteer on one of the area hospitals.
Such can help this former psychology and premed major determine if she should still pursue medicine once she's done with professional running.
When she was questioned on how she sees herself in the future, she shares that while she aims to have her own happy family that will have to wait until her career as a runner is already established.
She shares that before anything else, she wants to attain her goals and wants first.
