Salute To Seniors: Travis Albon


Questions 1: What was your greatest moment while competing in high school? 

My greatest moment in high school was winning a state title with my team my sophomore year.


Question 2: What is your biggest regret (related to T&F in high school) or what would you have done differently and why?

My biggest regret in high school is overthinking my races sometimes when I could have competed a lot better.


Question 3: What will you miss the most about HS T&F/XC?

I am going to miss the culture and the community/friends that I have made over the past 4 years.



Question 4: What is some advice from incoming frosh and rising seniors on your high school team that you would like to share with them?

My advice to a frosh is to run your own races and don't think about who the fastest person is, just think about how you can  beat the person in front of you.



Question 5: What was the hardest workout you did your entire high school career? Did you like it or did you dread it?

The hardest workout I had ever done was 2x400@800paceX2, 1 200 all out at the end of the 400s



Question 6: How did you make track/XC a very individual sport into more of a team sport?

I made running a team affiliated sport since our team (Atlee) had the ability to have serious potential and it showed in my senior year. Region champs for xc,indoor,outdoor. And having the deepest distance team in the state.



Question 7: Finally, what are your college plans? Will you be competing in college, where? What do you plan on studying? What do you have as career plans? 

I will be running for the George mason distance team for xc and track. And will be studying business
