Teagan Bandholz – Track and Field record setter and record breaker

Teagan Bandholz - Track and Field record setter and record breaker

What events do you participate in in track and field?

I do shot put, discus, and high jump.

What record did you break? 

I broke the discus record (128.1 meters).

How do you feel about beating your own record? 

Beating my own record feels so surreal because I know that I have so much time left for improvement.

Do you plan on pursuing track and field later in life, like in College? 

I do plan on doing track in college, hopefully we can make that happen.

How do you prepare for your events? 

I prepare for my events by visualizing my throws, and focusing on one specific thing that I have to do differently each time in order to improve.

What is your favorite event to participate in?

My favorite event is the discus because I love watching it fly.

What would you say to someone who wants to get into throwing events? 

I would say go for it and see where it takes you. Just try your best.

Considering that you are only a sophomore, do you see yourself breaking many more records in the next two years?

I see myself breaking my own record more, and I hope to set it to a pretty impressive length.
