I have learned that track doesn't define me. My faith defines me. I'm running because I have been blessed with a gift.

I spend around two and half hours on the track every day running and another 2 hours in the weight room lifting weights with my strength coach.

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

I think that kids aren't even exploring the option of sports anymore, and they don't even know what they could do.

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.

I never let track define me. That's something that's really important to me. That's what I do and it's what I love, but I think by having other things I'm passionate about and interested in, it helped me to come back. It helped me to have renewed love for the sport by being able to step away and then come back.

When I was younger, Jackie Joyner-Kersee was a mentor to me and gave me great advice. The best was to 'work 100 percent, but enjoy every moment along the way.' Sometimes you get so in the zone, you forget to enjoy your passions. I love running—but I also love the movies, relaxing on the beach, shopping and spending time with my friends. Enjoying my life helps me enjoy my running.
