Student-Athlete Profile

Estefania explains how she prepares herself for training and races: “Mentally, I find it important to always have a positive mindset and maintain determination during any tough times during workouts or races. I do this by meditating before races and picturing myself running. I also surround myself with positive friends and
teammates who always lift my spirits after a bad race or an injury and help me to never give up. Running requires a lot of mental strength; when your legs feel like quitting, my mind tells me to not quit.”
