Athletics
Since my current school has no sports teams, I have enjoyed community pickup games with college/adult players in Manhattan, especially during high school soccer season. I'm a strong long-distance runner with a serial cross country championship in the International Schools of Tokyo Athletic Association Competition in 2021, 2022 and 2023.
