Tell us about your best memory of your athletic career:
My best memory would be from competing in Sportshall Championships. In my last 4 years, after gaining enough points in the 4 league events, I qualified as an individual athlete for the regional championships. At this event I was two-time regional champion at U15 and U17. Following this, I qualified to compete at the national championships in Manchester, again at U15 and U17, both at which I was two-time national champion. In my last year, GB athlete Morgan Lake had told the Sportshall Association that she was giving her full GB kit and bag to the girls national champion. Due to winning I was lucky enough to gain her signed kit and bag.
Goals:
Since I started competing in athletics at the age of 8 I have always wanted to be selected for the Great British Team. My next step towards that goal is to be selected to compete internationally for England.
