" "you have talent" and i responded by saying "really??" "

I got into middle school, like every 6th grade class we had P.E and they always made us run as our "workout" so I would run And I would be in the front of the pack. Little did I know that cross country existed, one of the coaches there saw me day by day, week by week and Finally came up to me and told me "you have a talent" and I responded by saying "really!?!" And she said " Running, join my cross country team next year". I got so excited that I was going to be part of something (I was a loner I must say). After that I never stopped running, now that I'm a senior in high school I thank that coach for inspiring me to run XC. My passion for it, my love for it is stronger than anything in the world.
