Interesting Fact or Facts About Yourself: Hmm maybe more of a comment than a fact but I would just like every kid that is lucky enough to attend a IHRA race to know that if your heart is in it you absolutely can do anything you want in life. You must believe in yourself and be ready to make the required sacrifices. If you do this the world will be yours.
