Sarah Mohan

School: Huntsville High School

What was your most memorable meet and why?
My most memorable meet was New Balance Indoor Nationals because our 4x8 team had a fall, and we were still able to come back and finish really strong!!

Where did you face your biggest competition?
I faced my biggest competition at the state meet

Out of all of your high school accomplishments which stands out the most and why?
I think placing 3rd in the 1600 at the indoor state championships stands out the most because I had only run the 1600 three times prior to that.

If you could do it all over again what would you change about your running career in high school?

If I could do it all over again I would try and put less pressure on myself.

What were the most difficult obstacles you had to overcome?

It was difficult moving in the middle of high school to the other side of the country, but the team I came to at Huntsville High made everything a lot easier!!

What will you miss the most?

I'll miss my coach and teammates the most.

Do you have any advice for younger athletes?

My advice for younger athletes is to not let negative thoughts get the best of you because they can really have an effect on your races.

What are your post-high school or college plans?

After high school I will be continuing my running career at the University of Alabama, majoring in Journalism!

Who would you like to say thank you to?

I would like to say thank you to my parents, friends, and coaches for supporting me every step of the way!! GBR!!
