I am Corinne! After 2 years of recruitment, I decided in early April of 2022 to continue my academic and athletic career at College of St. Mary in Omaha, NE. It was an incredible and unique experience speaking to other coaches and feeling the atmosphere at each of the schools. I began running as a freshman in high school, and I was blown away, both by the people I met and the sport of running. There is no better feeling than getting to see your best friends everyday while simultaneously training relentlessly in the heat of the season. This, of course, follows even into the freezing temperatures of track and field. At the start of my career, I doubted even being able to complete a 5k without walking, now I've earned a spot on a college team. In Elkhorn, we have experienced a range of racing weather, my old team's preferred was cloudy with some rain. On a particular race day like this, I received both the honor of being Douglas County's Athlete of the Week and the Senior Spotlight.
