On June 30, Ericka ran her 2nd fastest 800m time of the season – 2:09.54. Tough night for her at the Oval Office, but, it is also another lesson learned. Post-race, she immediately called Coach Williams to tell him how the race went for her. As always, she confesses to her coach (and herself) where she faltered in her racing strategy. Ericka positively states, “I definitely had a lot left in the tank and I should have used it up in my race. I’ll keep smiling and move on to the next race😎 Gotta keep grinding”. Next up, 7/6, NJ International Track & Field Meet, Hightstown, NJ
