Sid Vaughn

Hi, my name is Sid Vaughn and I am a student-athlete at the University of Georgia. I run cross country as well as track. I started my running career over nine years ago and have loved the sport ever since. The reason I love running so much is that you literally get out what you put in to the sport. I learned this lesson early on in my running career. Whenever I first started running in middle school I had some early success off of my natural talent, but whenever I got to high school things quickly changed. I did not know the work ethic that it took in order to be one of the best runners in the state of Georgia. My first few races I was beaten by a lot of people and did not enjoy it. What I soon realized was that it took running a ton of miles in order to be in top shape. To a lot of people running many miles each day sounds awful but to me it is pure bliss. Running is what I look forward to most each day and I hope that I continue to run and get the same enjoyment out of it for many years to come!
