I sparked some interest in 1 restaurant but most places have been closed lol. The owner of the local restaurant said she will speak with her husband to go over it together.

Here are 3 strengths I’m known for as an athlete: 1. Natural Leader 2. Stand up guy 3. Good at taking direction and putting into action

Hey everyone! My name is Winfred Porter. I go by Win though because that’s all I do lol. I graduated Catawba College this past May. I ran track there and I have accomplished a lot during my collegiate career. I got runner up at D2 indoor nationals. I ran 10.04 & got 4th at D2 outdoor nationals. I competed at U.S indoor Trials as well for the 60m. I couldn’t have done any of this without keeping Jesus in the center of everything I do. I am originally from south Florida but I moved to NC to keep training with my coaches at Catawba because they’ve been such a big help for me and my success. They have been helping me pursue my pro dreams and Olympic goals. I decided to join the Winning Your Way community because I believe this community will teach me some essential skills to market myself well to get sponsored & some deals that will help fund my expenses for my track career!
