(Erica) went toe-to-toe with one of the state's best runners and finished on top. |
She has steadily improved as this season has gone on. She had a great summer and she keeps on improving every race. She is stronger and more confident and it's fun to watch. |
She's been on a mission. She put in a great summer. It's something that is always in the back of her head. If she's tired in a workout or race then she reminds herself about what happened last year and how she doesn't want it to happen again. It's extra motivation when you've been so close and now you want it even more. |
