SEATTLE – Throughout the summer, the Seattle Pacific sports information team will pose a series of questions to various Falcon athletes. We will feature one athlete each Wednesday. This week, it's women's track & field sprinter Marissa Crane.
 
 
What was the most memorable part of this past season for you? 
"The most memorable part for me was the GNAC outdoor meet."
 
Looking ahead to next season, what are you most excited about?

What are you planning to do this summer – Work? Vacation? Hang out with family? All of the above?  
"I'm planning to work and spend time with my family."
 
What is your favorite summertime way to stay in shape and prepare for next season?

Most athletes went to a summer sports camp of some kind when they were younger. Did you – and if so, what is your favorite memory from a summer sports camp?
"My most memorable one was a club cross country camp in Big Bear, California. We got to train in altitude and run to points that had amazing views. The camp was overnight and had lots of fun team-bonding activities, like karaoke and group wars."
 
Growing up, what was your favorite thing to do or what was your favorite place to go during the summer – and why was that your favorite? 
 "My favorite place during the summer has always been my grandma's house in Southern California. It has great family memories, sunshine – and the beach."
 
Someday – maybe sooner, maybe later – what is one place you'd really like to visit, and why that particular place?
