A long-time coming/took a lot of work and patience PR of 5:18 for 5th in the 1600 for Claire Porinsky! Totally worth showing up late to prom for. 😤

Third in the Mountain West as a freshman; missed the meet as a sophomore; runner-up while breaking the Academy record as a junior. Believe and keep showing up and great things will happen. The comeback > the setback
