Morgan Track




Morgan is still trying to run with POTS. She ended the indoor season placing 3rd
at the indoor state championships in the 400m.

Morgan has decided she will keep racing the 400m but is getting more and more tired doing that one lap. Her heart rate is now up to 246 beats per minute after running the 400m. She still throws up at practices but will not quit. She will run the 200m and has just decided a couple days ago that she wants to run the 100m but that means she has to be in blocks. For the last two days she has been working with her coach on blocking. It is so hard for her to be with her head down and then shoot upwards, this makes her heart rate jump and she gets lightheaded. Tomorrow will be her first time doing the 100m in blocks and we are nervous for her. Above is her practicing the blocks.
