Creating a track club with little help was a big challenge for Zende. It wasn't easy at first because not many people supported the idea. Zende didn't give up and faced the challenge with strong determination. Even though it seemed tough without much support, Zende believed in the club's vision. Zende started by talking to people who loved track like they did and slowly built a small team of friends who shared the same passion. They worked hard on their goals, telling everyone in the community about the club and why it mattered.
Going through this tough time taught Zende important things. It showed that sticking to the goals and not giving up, even when things are tough, is really important. Zende learned how teamwork, thinking on your feet, and talking well with others are crucial in getting support for something you care about. This experience made Zende understand that challenges are a part of growing and being successful. It made them believe even more in being determined and staying true to their goals, even when things are difficult.
Actively involved in community initiatives, Zende organizes charity walks, volunteers at meets, and supports ColorStack Chapter initiatives.
