Undergraduate / The day that I would become the New York City champion in the 1000-meter race. Common app essay [10]

Hello again. I tried another one, which kinda describes me as a runner.it has 142 words, and I hope that its better than the other one.

"I always prepare myself both physically and mentally before a big race. Running not only requires the strength of my muscles or my way of breathing, but it also requires a strong mind that can help push myself to higher levels. Thanks to that great mentality, it had helped me reach goals that I never imagined to achieve. That's what makes me a good runner; always focusing on the race before running on the track. Always wanting to be better, trying to compete with the best, never fully satisfied with my times, wanting a always a better time. That's how I know I can improve even more, by having a strong mind and always thinking positive about myself, thinking that I can make it even further, but only if I want it to happen. A great runner always requires a strong mentality."

Thank you

Hi there. Could you please correct something if anything is wrong? or give me advice on it? Thank you

Since the beginning of my indoor track season, I had been picturing that day, the day that I would become the New York City champion in the 1000-meter race. I was preparing myself intensely both physically and mentally in the weeks leading up to the race. That day I was nervous but ready, and when the gun fired, I quickly made my way up to the first pack of runners and stayed with them for three entire laps, waiting to make a move on the last lap. Approaching the last lap, I moved to second place and then sprinted past the first runner with 150 meters to go, just thinking about crossing the finish line in first place. When I crossed the finish line I raised my arms in victory, overjoyed that my hard work had finally paid off.
