I've Got To Make Sure I'm Keeping

For Me, My Faith Is The Reason I Run. I Definitely Feel I Have This Amazing Gift That God Has Blessed Me With, And It's All About Using It To The Best Of My Ability.

I Majored In Elementary Education, And I Have A Passion For Kids.

It Was Not Until The End Of My Freshman Year In High School That I Thought I Could Really Have A Future In Track And Field. I Definitely Did Not Think I Could Make It To The Olympics Back Then, Though; I Was Just Focused On Making It To The State Finals!

When I Was Younger, Jackie Joyner-kersee Was A Mentor To Me And Gave Me Great Advice. The Best Was To 'work 100 Percent, But Enjoy Every Moment Along The Way.' Sometimes You Get So In The Zone, You Forget To Enjoy Your Passions. I Love Running—but I Also Love The Movies, Relaxing On The Beach, Shopping And Spending Time With My Friends. Enjoying My Life Helps Me Enjoy My Running.

I Want To Run For Eternal Glory And Track Is Great, But It's Not What Life Is All About.
