Sahil Dodda, 'The Sky Is The Limit'



Sahil Dodda is one of the best boys cross country runners in the state of Texas and possibly one of the best nationally as well. It wasn't always like that for the Dallas St. Marks senior; by his own admission, he was just an average runner.

However, he wanted to be better and he wanted to get as much as he could out of running. That something he wanted was a future and a pathway to making it come to reality. 

Running at the next level would be key to his desires, so he wanted help paying for college enhancing the need become a better runner. Dodda went to his coaches and asked what he needed to do in order to get better. Since that moment, Dodda has become a faster runner and has gained the attention he wanted from college coaches; a decision of where he will run at in college is on the horizon.


"I think the sky is the limit, honestly. Something my coaches tell me is to never have a ceiling on yourself."
