Striving for excellence

Nadia Evans has been running since she was 5 years old. Her passion was discovered at an early age and her parents Sharna and Mike found a sprint coach for Nadia when she was 8 years old. The training paid off and Nadia was undefeated for 8 years. The 100m and 200m Sprint is where Nadia has found her passion and was selected to represent New Zealand in 2020 and 2021. Nadia’s dream is to represent New Zealand in the Commonwealth and Olympic Games, Her next steps are to gain an Athletic Scholarship in the United States. Well done Nadia on not only your recent successes but for setting a great example that hard work and commitment pays off!
