I'm passionate about my sport and grateful that I get to do it for a living.

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 had worked so hard; that was my opportunity. And my mom was just able to turn it around for me. She helped me to be able to see the other side of things and that this is not the end for me.

I think every genius person has a bit of insanity.

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

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.

Right now I'd say my favorite fashion designer is Zac Posen.
