In her interview, Hannah says this was the first race in which she felt “fully recovered” after her previous ACL injuries. She says, “I paced myself pretty well...it was a smart race,” leaving her full of energy to overcome runners during the final stretch.
Hannah remarks that the Crusaders are going to have a strong season: “We’re going to be so good this year. We’ve had summer training and three weeks of pre-season. We’ve been working hard.” St. Andrew’s will be hosting the SPC’s cross country competition this year, and Hannah has her sights on a Crusader win, saying “I think our team has so much potential and I think we can win it this year.”
