I'm really laid back but I still like to dress up sometimes.

Being a role model is a privilege.

I want to run for eternal glory and track is great, but it's not what life is all about.

I love the relays. Track is such an individual sport, so it's fun to do something together.

I'm just competitive. It doesn't matter what it is. I want to win.

I feel like I'm always going to be me. It always goes back to being the person that I am. And I hope that will never change.

As a female athlete, you're always fighting to be on a level playing field with your male counterparts. But I believe the Olympics is great for young girls; they get to be exposed to so many different sports and to these really strong women. It's an opportunity to showcase what we do, which is something that men get the opportunity to do on a pretty regular basis.
