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.

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

If I wasn't active and involved in different sports and just moving around, I wouldn't have even known that I had the potential to become an Olympian.

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

I focused solely on the sprints, dedicated my time there, got in the weight room, just really did everything I could to make sure I would be in the best position to run for gold.

I've heard so many stories of young girls watching the Olympics and being inspired by it, and they want to do it now, and that's really cool.

The pressure is hard. You get - the world is only watching every four years, and I think lots of people feel like they have to win in that time frame.
