State Track Meet 2011
I ran track in high school and I really had a passion for it. I have competed in every relay, the 400 meter run, 100 meter hurdles, 300 meter hurdles, triple jump and long jump. My senior year our relay team qualified for the state track meet in the 4 X 400 meter relay. Wylie has a strong history in this event, qualifying for the state meet nearly every year, but had never won the Texas State Championship. On the relay I ran with three of my very good friends. Katy Yarbrough had the baton first, Michelle Lytle, the third leg, and Nicole Mitchell, ran the anchor leg. I ran the second leg. Our relay team was peaking at the right time and we won the race going away, with a time of 3:54, also a school record. It was a lot of hard work but it was all worth it winning that race and receiving that gold medal with my friends.
