It was affordable and it not only focused on athletics but academics. How different are practices at SIUE compared to your high school? Well I came from a relatively large high school that put a lot of money and emphasis on athletics so in the area of lifting and plyometrics it was the same. But compared to high school, collegiate running is focused on intensity not only during competition but also at practice. Do you have any superstitions before competing? Not really, but I use to always have a doughnut before meets but thanks to Coach Eileen's health consciousness I kind of kicked that routine. Which teammate is most likely to be a head coach one day?
