I'm Always Nervous. If I Wasn't Nervous,

My Mom Always Has This Amazing Ability To Always See The Best In A Situation. In That Moment [when Finished 2nd In The 200 Meter Race In The 2008 Olympic Games] I Was Just Completely Devastated. I Mean, I Had Worked So Hard; That Was My Opportunity. And She Was Just Able To Turn It Around For Me. She Helped Me To Be Able To See The Other Side Of Things And That This Is Not The End For Me. She's Just An Amazing Supporter And An Encouraging Person And She Has A Unique Ability To Do That. And So Those Are The Kind Of Things She Said To Me In That Moment And Over The Next Four Years. When Things Get Tough, She's Always Been My Strength.

I Grew Up In A Christian Home With Amazing Parents.

I Always Look Back To My First Olympic Medal In 2004 In Athens. I Was Very New To The Sport, And It Was My First Big Win At The Olympics.

Philippians 1:21 Is Very Special To Me Because It Helps To Keep My Life Centered.

For Me, There's A Lot Of Expectations And You Want To Be Able To Live Up To Them.
