In elementary school through sixth grade sophomore Grant Kuhn didn’t participate in any sports. In seventh grade, he began running for his school’s cross country and track teams because he wanted to participate in a sport. Ever since, Kuhn has run cross country every fall and track every spring. Like other cross country and track runners at Elizabethtown College, Kuhn says his favorite part of running for the college is the group of guys he gets to run with.

Kuhn will be studying abroad in the fall of 2022 and is very excited to run cross country in England for the semester. He is also looking forward to the upcoming track season and to begin training for it.
