Tell us how your summer training went?
My summer training went really well this year. I was able to put on a lot of mileage as well as do a lot of cross-training.
What are your goals for the upcoming season?
I would like to make New Englands and possibly break 16.
What is your favorite course to run in Maine?
My favorite course to run in Maine is either Belfast or Cony.
What is the toughest course to run in Maine?
Definitely MCI. The ski hill kills your legs and the golf course gets in your head.
What is your favorite cross-country memory?
My favorite cross country memory would probably be Festival last year. I was really happy with how I ran the race.
What is your favorite cross country race so far in your high school career?
My favorite cross country race so far in high school would either be Regionals or Festival last year.

New Balance Minimus
What shoes do you race in?

Favorite Post-race Meal?
Anything and everything.
Flat course or hills?
Probably flat just because flat courses are usually good PR courses, but I am definitely not opposed to a few hills!
Facebook , Instagram or Twitter?
Facebook, but I’m not a huge social media person.
Favorite song at the moment?
Currently its a toss up between Criminal by Framing Hanley or Oak Island by Our Last Night.
