Name: Taryn Burbridge

What do you enjoy most about track? I enjoy the team atmosphere and competing.

What do you think your best event will be?

I think my best event will be the 400 or the 4x400. Last year the 4x4 team placed at state, and so far we’ve had a good start, so I’m excited to keep improving our times.

What advice do you have for younger runners? You have to be willing to push yourself, and hold yourself accountable. Many practices can be challenging but one way to get better at things is by going outside of your comfort zone, and pushing your limits.

How does this year’s season feel different than last year’s? This season I feel as if I am in better shape. I am a lot stronger this year, and I have more confidence.

What’s your goal for this year? My major goal this season is to place in multiple events at state.
