I'm learning in my own sort of quiet, out-of-the-spotlight kind of way. I certainly have my general point of view about the government, and the future of our children. I'm certainly learning all the time, I'm happy to be an onlooker for now.

My story has resonated around the world. I am just Catherine, I just like to run. And I'll run with opportunities.

I made my first Australian senior team when I was 16, first Olympics when I was 19, and I retired. I'm 32, I retired four years ago, so a good third of my life or nearly a third of my life has been all about running.

I'll just let time happen. I don't have to articulate what may be or what may not be. I don't even do that to myself.

I'm doing something now where I'm going to have to learn so much and that takes time nurturing, those kinds of relationships.

Peace, unity and harmony!

I was running since I was 10. Since grade one at school people looked at me and thought, oh gosh she can really run, she's a natural.
