Students of Day Creek: Riley S.

Christian R., Writer

When were you most tempted to quit and what did you learn from this experience?

“When I was 6, I went to Colorado for a race on skies, and on my first run I fell and they disqualified me for that run. I had another chance, but I wanted to quit because I thought I didn’t have a chance of even placing. I ended up going again and I got a gold medal. I learned that if you fail the first time you will always have a second try.”
