I majored in elementary education, and I have a passion for kids.

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

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

I can be a voice. I can use my platform to help the younger generation. I think it's really important for them to understand how to do things the right way, and not just in sports, in life in general.

I try to think about my goals. I think about my competitors-I know they're working hard, and if they are, I have to work hard too. I have to be one step ahead of them.

My mom is great and I make sure that we pray together before every race. She helps me put everything in perspective and remind me of the real reason I run.

I grew up in my mom's third grade classroom and always helping her, and I also got a passion for kids that way.
