Liz is a freshman. She is currently running track for Maryvale. She is running distance: 800m, 1600m, 3200m, or relays of some of these distances. She is already turning in some of the top times in the IAAM. She just competed on Friday in an IAAM meet and finished 4th in the 3200.
She is a runner. She needs to learn to close out a race, and she has been improving on this. I find that she is rather hard on herself as a competitor. There is no need at this point for us as parents to do anything but be supportive. And be proud.
