<p>In 9th grade, I tried out for the lacrosse team at my school. We ran a lot. I was completely out of shape and on the second day, I walked out of tryouts halfway through because I was so out of shape. I was really disappointed. A few days later, I joined the track team so I could become a better runner for lacrosse. I wasn't good at track at first, but I improved a LOT. Then, I ran cross country, indoor, and outdoor track until now (junior year) and will continue next year. </p>
<p>I have completely lost interest in lacrosse. Running is my new passion. What used to be a punishment for me is now something I love - I love to go out and run for miles. I'm one of the top runners on my team now.</p>
