Next month, standout runner Anna Hastings of Albuquerque Academy will compete in the New Balance Indoor Nationals in Boston.
She will compete in the 1-mile and 2-mile races on the trip.
She punched her ticket to the 1-mile race with a qualifying time last month at an indoor meet at the Albuquerque Convention Center.
Hastings last May, qualified for the 2-mile race with a top performance at an outdoor meet in Huntsville, Alabama.
“I’m super excited, I’m really looking forward to it,” said Hastings, a state champion for the Chargers both on the cross country course and on the track. “It’s exciting, always, to have the opportunity to race a bunch of really fast runners.”
Hastings, 17, has signed to compete at Brown University of the Ivy League. Her first meet for Academy comes up the first weekend in March.
