Senior Amanda Newby is the No. 1 runner for Sickles' girls cross country team.
When did you start running cross country?
In middle school I played soccer, and then my sophomore year I came out for the cross country team at Sickles.
Did you like it at first, or did it take a little getting used to?
No, I definitely didn't like it at first - it wasn't until this year that I really enjoyed it.
What made you stick with it?
The people on my team, the good atmosphere really kept me going back.
Most runners like something like pasta before a race; what is yours?
No, I always eat Special K cereal and a bagel with jelly.
Didn't you turn in a personal record recently at the Southern Stars meet?
Yeah, I think it's 20:58.
