Boerne Champion

Leachman is a bona fide gold medal magnet, and her epic solo run to break the national high school 5,000-meter record last month at the Texas Relays inched her closer to qualifying for the U.S. Olympic Trials.

Dinner date! This gift card lets you dine at Planet Hollywood, Bertucci’s, and more, now starting at $20.At 16 years old, she’s already a once-in-a-lifetime talent and wise beyond her years.

“Qualifying for the trails would definitely be an honor, and it would be amazing if that opportunity came up,” shared Leachman. “But UIL is my focus right now. The focus isn’t so much on that, and if it happens, that’d be fantastic. But we’ll just have to wait and see.” “My parents will tell almost anyone, if I don’t want to do this in college, I’m not going to do this in college,” said Leachman. “That really helps knowing I’m the one choosing to be here every day.”

“Eventually, the times followed with my health returning, I think,” said Leachman. “It was great because it was a big risk to take for me, and it was definitely scary.”
