Indoor Track Athlete Profile: Caity Lowden

By Holly Gordon

Senior Caity Lowden began her first Indoor Track season her freshmen year and has been running ever since. Lowden originally did track in order to stay in shape for lacrosse, but eventually realized she actually preferred track over lacrosse.

This year, she is competing in the 600 meter, 800 meter and 1600 meter, her main event. Lowden aims to run the 1600 meter in 5 minutes and 20 seconds, a time that would make her highly competitive for the University of Miami track team she hopes to walk on to next year. She enjoys competing against her own times each meet and is looking forward to improving throughout the upcoming season.

“I like Indoor Track because when you’ve improved, you know you deserve it,” Lowden said. We wish Lowden and her fellow teammates the best of luck this Indoor track season!

Come see the Girls Indoor Track and Field take on other teams around the Fairfield County area in this Saturday December 22nd morning meet at Staples High School in Westport, Connecticut.
