Q & A with Lizzie
Why Dartmouth?
I chose Dartmouth because it had everything I was looking for in a school; challenging academics, an historic cross-country program, and a beautiful location.
How long have you been running cross country and what got you interested in cross country?
I've been running cross-country since my freshman year of high school. I always liked to run, so I decided to try out cross-country and then I sort of fell in love with the team and the sport.
Tell me something interesting about you that might come as a surprise to your teammates.
In eighth grade I learned how sing (or sign?) "God Bless America" in sign language.
