I Was A Disruptive Child.

It Was All Kind Of A Whirlwind At The Beginning. I Didn't Really Realize That I Had A Special Gift From God. It Was Probably Towards The End Of High School In My Senior Year When Things Really Started To Come Together And I Realized That I Had More Potential And That I Could Do This As A Career And That The Olympics Were A Possibility.

I Don't Have A Sprinter's Body.

I Always Want To Give More Than I Gave Yesterday.

I Never Let Track Define Me. That's Something That's Really Important To Me.

The Biggest Way I Stay Motivated Is To Run With A Group Of Friends. Sometimes It's Hard To Get Going By Yourself, But If You Have A Plan And A Meeting Time, You Know This Run Will Happen For Sure. It's A Way To Have Fun - While Also Getting In A Workout. Plus It Distracts From Pain, Helps You Fight Fatigue, And Gives You That Extra Push.
