This experience has allowed me to create strong friendships that will last beyond my schooling, and it all started with me failing horribly. Towards the end of my ninth grade year, one of my best friends convinced me

Every runner was shaking out his limbs, getting the blood flowing, the already tense muscles ready to explode at the crack of the starting gun or the passing of the baton. The sun’s cruel glare beat down on my team’s black jerseys; the sweat-wicking material wasn’t helping much today. Everyone tried to amplify that nervous
