Hansen Dam made an impact on me because I realized the significance of team motivation and good sportsmanship. Some people I did not know ran with me until the end. Without this motivation, I would have given up. In this race I met the infamous \"wall.\" After suffering from several cramps I was not able to run, so I stopped and stretched. While stretching someone came up to me and said if I was fine and if I needed something to let him know. I was shocked that this person approached me in a good manner because I have never encountered good sportsmanship until the Hansen Dam race. Jesus, Los Angeles High School
