As A Kid, I Was A Pretty

Training For The Olympics Was Much Easier Than Balancing My Life Now! When Practice Was Over, There Was Time For Me. But With Four Kids And A Career, I Have No Downtime. When I'm Not On The Road, I Finish My Workday At 2:30 P.m. Then I Pick The Kids Up From School And They Get 100 Percent Mommy, Not Part Mommy And Part Mary Lou Retton.

If I Had A Bad Performance In A Particular Leotard, I Threw It In The Trash.

Having A Home Away From The Media Glare Is Important To World-class Athletes.

I'm Very Determined And Stubborn. There's A Desire In Me That Makes Me Want To Do More And More, And To Do It Right. Each One Of Us Has A Fire In Our Heart For Something. It's Our Goal In Life To Find It And To Keep It Lit.

As Much Time As You Put Into It, That's What Your Achievements Are Going To Be When You Come Out Of It.
