PERSONAL STATEMENT

My main interest is Athletics. I enjoy watching athletics and taking part. My favourite part of running is the track but I take part in cross-country to help with my endurance. My other interests include listening to music and going out with my friends. I am currently at Wickersley Sixth Form studying Sports Studies, English language and Media Studies. My ambition is to one day compete for Great Britain in the Olympics. The event that I would most like to do this for is the 800m.
