The Long Road Back

It has been nearly a year since my dream was stolen from me.

I remember it like it was yesterday—being told the NCAA Rifle Championships were canceled, sobbing all the way back to the venue to get my gear, not knowing what the hell was going on.

I remember it all.

Ever since I was a little girl participating in 4-H, I've always dreamt of one day competing in college and becoming a national champion. Imagine staring that dream dead in the eyes and then being told to go back home.

The road back hasn't been easy.
