“I began running the summer of 2018. I got into running because I wanted to stay in shape and to give me something to do over the summer. Also because it was different and more difficult than anything I had done before, so I wanted to give it a try.  I run races about once a month when there are some going on. So right now since it’s winter, I don’t run as often because there aren’t as many races. My next race is on April 13th, and it is a half marathon. My favorite thing about running is that I get to see new things when I go on long runs, and I also enjoy making the playlists for my runs. I really wouldn’t say I have a least favorite thing about running, it’s more that each race and training day comes with its ups and downs, so it mainly depends on the race or day.”
