Lily Neff has been swimming competitively for 10 years. She began her swimming career on the Candler Park Wahoo swim team and now swims for the Midtown team. She believes that these skills have translated to her other sports endeavors and led to her successful cross country season.
“Because I’ve been swimming my whole life, I really learned how to build my stamina,” Neff said. “When it was time to start running for cross country, I found that it was significantly easier because I had been practicing both mental and physical endurance.”
