Since she was in the seventh grade, B-CC Junior Ani Bailin knew that she wanted to pursue track and field. And in just three years of competing for the Barons, she has already left an everlasting mark on the program for generations to come.
Despite running recreationally for years, Bailin began to train and run competitively as a freshman. Ever since then, she has taken running incredibly seriously, “running about 40 to 45 miles a week, and strength training two to three days a week.”
Her accomplishments have not gone unnoticed, as The Washington Post awarded her an honorable mention as one of the top female runners in the DC Metro area.
When asked about her accomplishments, she explained “success means a lot to me, and it’s nice to see [my hard work] finally paying off.”
Bailin will compete in her final competition of the season for Indoor Track and Field this weekend from Friday, March 8 – Sunday, March 10. She will compete for B-CC next year, and plans to pursue a running career at the collegiate level.
