College is hard enough, but being a collegiate athlete at the same time is a balancing act that has to be performed with excellence. As a student-athlete, I can say with first-hand experience that it’s not easy balancing school, sports, and work. I wanted to capture the daily grind of a student-athlete in a digital story created in Audacity using narration by my own voice recording and sample sounds.

The narration explains the daily life of a student-athlete in an hour-to-hour time frame from 5:00 am wake up to 2:00 am bedtime. The student-athlete goes through early morning workouts, three classes, and projects that are all due in 24 hours. Listen as a student from Lane Community College goes through a regular day as a student-athlete.
