Hi! My name is Maliyah Collins. I am 12 years old and I need your help! I have been running track since I was 5 years old and my dream is to make it to the Olympics one day. I run the 100m, 200m, 400m, 4x1 relay and 4x4 relay. I started running as a way to make new friends and build on my talent. I have worked hard to get here and one day I want to be just as great as Allison Felix.

I am currently the fastest in the 200m event in the 11/12-year-old age group with a time of 25.17 in the west coast region. My goal for this season is to break the world record of 24.37 in the 11-12 age group .

During the next 3 months I will be competing in several events across the United States. My single mom has been taking me for the last 7 years and I would love for her to get your support.

Thank you for believing in me and believing in my dream!
