Aaron Mylan is a sophomore and participates on the Jefferson Morgan track team.

Some of the challenges that Aaron has overcame was the pain of running longer distances.“Running longer distances that your use to is a hard challenge to conquer mentally and physically because of the pain that occurs,”  said Aaron Mylan.

Aaron he has lettered 1 year and is currently working on his second year. He is first one in his entire family to run track. In addition to his school events Aaron runs in outside of school events. During the summer he runs at indoor competitions and 5k or public running event, such as the Turkey Trot. Aaron has won 6 of his 7 outside of school events. Aaron’s biggest challenge he has overcame is the best time for the mile. His personal record for one mile is 4:49 and his two mile is 11:07.

“My advice to any up coming freshman is to stay mentally prepared and physically prepared for anything. Also to push yourself harder than you ever have before,” said Aaron Mylan.

The most rewarding thing about running track in Aaron’s opinion is  the feeling when you beat a personal record. As a fairly new member to the track team Aaron still has more challenges to overcome and try to defeat.
