Sophomore Reid Moulton is a member of the Law boys indoor track team. Advocate Sports Editor Dylan Gaillard interviewed Moulton about the indoor track season.
Dylan Gaillard: How is the season going so far?
Reid Moulton: The season is going great, not just for me but for the team. I think we have all grown since the first practice, and I hope we can all develop as the season goes on.
DG: What is your favorite event to run indoors, and why?
RM: My favorite event is long jump, Ive been doing this event since the middle school track meets, and now I’m closer to breaking my personal record than ever.
DG: How do you train differently for indoor track compared to outdoor track?
RM: I think the practices are around the same. I think the indoor workouts are more intense than the outdoor ones. Even when we go outside to practice for indoor track, it’s hard to adapt to the cold.
DG: What has been your most memorable race and what made it special?
RM: I would say my first 55-meter dash, I went into it never doing it and not knowing what I was going to get out of it, but I ended up getting a 7.06, making States, and it is now my current personal record.
DG: How do you stay motivated during long practice sessions or tough meets?
RM: Through meets, I’m usually occupied with my events, but in my breaks, I’ll try to stay stretched. Since I have an event usually at the end of the meet, I just use my time wisely, and practice to make myself better.
