I Definitely Think I Put More Pressure

The Most Important Lesson That I Have Learned Is To Trust God In Every Circumstance. Lots Of Times We Go Through Different Trials And Following God's Plan Seems Like It Doesn't Make Any Sense At All. God Is Always In Control And He Will Never Leave Us.

I'm Passionate About My Sport And Grateful That I Get To Do It For A Living.

My Mom Always Has This Amazing Ability To Always See The Best In A Situation. In That Moment [when Finished 2nd In The 200 Meter Race In The 2008 Olympic Games] I Was Just Completely Devastated. I Mean, I Had Worked So Hard; That Was My Opportunity. And She Was Just Able To Turn It Around For Me. She Helped Me To Be Able To See The Other Side Of Things And That This Is Not The End For Me. She's Just An Amazing Supporter And An Encouraging Person And She Has A Unique Ability To Do That. And So Those Are The Kind Of Things She Said To Me In That Moment And Over The Next Four Years. When Things Get Tough, She's Always Been My Strength.

I'm An Athlete Who's Very Determined And I Understand Sacrifice.

I Don't Have A Sprinter's Body.
