I am passionate about the sport track & field. Running track is my happy place and it puts me at ease. When I'm hurdling all the noise disappears and I am truly at peace.

Why are you passionate about this project?

I am passionate about this project because I love track & field. I love everything about the sport even when it gets hard.

Where did you first see/hear about this type of work?

I first heard about track & field when I was younger. My mom and uncle both ran track but I always hated the idea of running. I did competitive gymnastics from ages 2 - 12 but eventually quit. When I came to Maryvale in 9th grade I knew I wanted to do a sport so I thought I would just give track a chance and instantly fell in love with it.

What brings you joy/happiness about this project?

Something that gives me joy about this project is that I get to perfect my craft and it makes me feel like I'm good at something. Hurdling is a special part of track & field to me and I enjoy it so much.

I will focus on the "observe" Habit of Mind by listening to my coaches and applying those critiques to my training so I can get better. When competing it is easy to mess up by not fixing the little things in practice, so I always obtain as much information as I can so I can perform well at meets.

"My faith was being tested all week. From bad practices to 3 false start delays, to a meet delay, I just kept hearing God say, "Just focus on me."

I first heard about Sydney McLaughlin when I first started hurdling. She is an Olympic and World Champion in the 400m hurdles and is someone I look up to. For me, her work is so important because one day I want to be as good as her and would love to compete on that level.

The track and field action at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics continues on Tuesday, August 3, 2021 (8/3/21) at the Olympic Stadium in Tokyo, Japan, and it features a blockbuster meeting in the women's 400 meter hurdle race.

N.J. native Sydney McLaughlin faces off against rival Dalilah Muhammad in the race's finals in an attempt to earn her first gold medal.

Muhammad is the 2016 gold medalist, the reigning world champion and a 31-year-old from Queens who has battled hamstring injuries and COVID-19 as she has tried to maintain her grip on an event she has owned for much of her professional career.

McLaughlin is the 21-year-old chosen one, an athlete who turned a dominant high school career and a single collegiate season at Kentucky into a lucrative professional career with endorsements from New Balance, Gatorade and watchmaker TAG Heuer.

The last three times McLaughlin and Muhammad have faced off on the track, a world record has fallen. At the Olympic Trials in June, McLaughlin became the first woman to crack 52 seconds in the event, shaving a full two tenths of second off the record at 51.90.

Fans can watch the track and field action at the Olympics -- including the McLaughlin vs. Muhammad race set for 10:30 p.m. Eastern -- live for free via a trial of fuboTV.
