20-Time Post #1

For my 20-Time project I am going to challenge and improve myself in both physical and mental ways. I am gong to sprint the 200 meter dash in a track meet at least once this season in a time of 30 seconds or less. I have been on Varsity Cross Country ever since I was a freshman and for track I have only participated in the long distance races such as the mile, 800 meter run, and the mile relay. My mom was the one who always encouraged me to try sprinting but I had always been timid about it. I believe this is the perfect time for me to finally break free from my comfort zone and push myself in a new way. Now that I have taken on a new challenge I have found that I am trying to push myself more at practices. Just running a little longer and stretching a little further has already been making a difference. I'm excited to try this race, and I am going into this new adventure with a very open-mind.
