I love chocolate. I like milk and dark chocolate, but definitely not white.

I just tell people to listen to your heart. Anything is possible if you are doing something you love.

I really want to go back to school and finish up my sociology degree.

I think having the right music can really help you have fun while staying in shape. Make a great playlist that motivates you!

And I want a gold medal more than anything. I just want a gold medal, so that's been pushing me forward.

It was probably right after I made my comeback - after retiring post-2008 Olympics - when I finally felt more at ease with my body. Being away from the sport helped put things in perspective.

It takes a lot of hard work to achieve your dreams, but nothing in life is easy. If it's something you really want, go after it!
