The Athens Olympics Will Be Meaningful Even

My Story Has Resonated Around The World. I Am Just Catherine, I Just Like To Run. And I'll Run With Opportunities.

I Feel Like I've Reached An Age Where I Can Relax A Little Bit With The Knowledge Of What I've Been Through, Take All That Experience And Use It. I Love The Challenge Of Trying To Get Back To Where I've Been, And Beyond It.

I Definitely Do Things On My Terms, It May Not Seem That Way But I Actually Do.

I Have Been Told Many Times That When I Win I Make My People Proud To Be Australian. I Am Aboriginal, I Am One Of Them And Every Time I Win Or Am Honoured Like This It Should Be An Example To Aboriginal People Who May Think They Have Nowhere To Go But Down. But More Importantly I Am An Australian And I Would Like To Make All Australians Feel Proud To Be Australian. Ours Is A Truly Multicultural Society And Should Be United As Such. I Would Like To Believe That My Successes Are Celebrated By All Australians, Bringing Our Nation Together.

This Occasion Is Personally Very Meaningful And I Hope To Visit Korea Again If I Have The Chance.
