Personal Narrative: I Want To Pursue Running Track

98 Words1 Page

I would continue running track because I love the sport and the ways it pushes me to my physical and mental limits. With this sport, it has taught me discipline and dedication inside and outside the sport. I know no matter how fast I run or how hard I work, I can always do better. This sport has challenged me to do my best and beyond. When I would want to quit or stop running during a workout, I pushed through and endured. I knew the harder I worked, the more it would pay off in the future.
