Athletics!

When did you start?

I started when I was 11 years old.

What attracted you to the sport/ what do love about it?

I knew I was fast in netball & basketball and wanted to test out how I was in little athletics. I was pushed by my netball coach to test it out and needless to say I fell in love with it as 10 years later I’m still running!

I love the community aspect of it and being able to beat your personal bests.

I have competed at the Australian National Championships for 100m & 200m sprints.

What do you love about coaching?

Being able to inspire the next generation of athletes to persevere and stick at a sport.

Favourite running session and why?

Short block sessions.

Love working on driving out of the blocks.

Favourite coaching session and why?

Love doing the relay sessions and having everyone involved in a team.

The relays are always competitive, and everyone tries their best to win.

Where do you aspire to go to with your sport and coaching journey?

I aspire to continuing working with primary aged children to improve their fundamental running skills for not just athletics but for any sport they wish to improve in through their running!
