Competing at the Olympics is the pinnacle of your career. Everything is amplified, and you feel so proud to represent your country. You're there with athletes from all over the world. Everyone is coming together, putting differences aside.

You know, I love wearing heels. I wish I could wear them all the time, but, you know, my sport doesn't really permit it.

As you get older, there are going to be a few more challenges, but thankfully I'm still feeling good.

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

Jackie Joyner-Kersee is actually someone I have a personal relationship with and who continues to do amazing things in her community. I continue to be inspired by her. If I can emulate myself after someone it's her and I just hope to have that effect on my community and continue to go on to do things like she has.

I love a great pair of jeans and a nice blouse.

I'm an athlete who's very determined and I understand sacrifice.
