I'll Just Let Time Happen. I Don't

I Want To Be A Positive Role Model, Especially For Kids And Aboriginal People... When People See Me, Often All They See Is Another Australian Athlete Having A Go. It Isn't Until They See The Full Cathy Freeman Picture That They Realise How Proud I Am Of My Ancestry And Heritage. I'd Like A Little More Tolerance And Acceptance Of My Culture And All The Differing Cultures That Make Up Australia.

I Like Being In The Workforce; It Keeps Me Grounded.

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.

My Last Real Race Was At The Olympics In Sydney In 2000.

I Have Time To Breathe, Time To Be Myself More Often, I Am A Lot More Relaxed And Less Guarded.
