Been a lifelong swimmer, but quarantine has pushed me towards running for the first time in my life! When Bates set up a virtual 5K, I thought it would be a great time to try my first running race! It went really well, I finished in 25 minutes flat! To all the Batesies out there: do the things that make you happy, stay healthy, and keep doing amazing things! #BatesReunion – Andrew Seaton ’15
