I would like to express a keen interest in the social running captain role because I would like to help organise run leaders for social runs, lead couch 2- 5k program and arrange monthly Parkruns. In my first year, I have really enjoyed participating regularly in all the cross-country competitions especially at BUCS and LUCA events as there was real buzz to the team spirit and being able to represent UCL by competing against other Universities. Social running was one of the first things I did in my freshers’ week, and it really helped me fit into UCL Life and meet new people, who also ran. I liked the fact that there were different paces for everyone, and you could always just go slower if you wanted to. From aged 8 when I joined Gosforth harriers, I have thoroughly enjoyed competing and training in cross country and have had the opportunity to compete at regional and county level. At my home club, I was appointed as Junior Women’s Captain where I selected teams, which I’m still involved with, encouraged junior members and helped organise the Gosforth Harriers Summer relays. This previous experience will help me in doing this role. I always aim to come to training as regularly as possible and compete consistently and feel that I have a diligent and conscientious attitude towards training and want to get involved in organising social running events.
