My Life Is A Blessing Every Day

I Have To Be Cautious, Have My Thyroid Levels Checked, And As Long As I Do That, I'm Fine.

I Always Said A Prayer Before I Ran, And My Prayer Was To Win. My Prayer Was That God Would Allow Me To Run My Best On That Day, Or Better Than My Best. So Whatever The Outcome Is, I Have To Be Satisfied With It If I Know I Gave It My Best Effort.

I Was Blessed With A Long Career Where I Won Gold Medals For Myself And My Country. Nothing Stands Out As A Disappointment.

People See Me Now And Ask If I'm Still Running. I May Look Like I Am, But I'm Really Not. People Think I Still Run Every Day But I Ran For 25 Years And I Deserve To Not Do Anything But Walk Or Ride The Bike With My Kids.

It Is So Important For Young Girls To Be Fit. I Think Sports Is The Key To Success, Because The Challenges You Face In Sports Prepare You For The Rest Of Your Life.
