I used biomechanics to save time when I was competing.
I never struggled with injury problems because of my preparation - in particular my stretching.
I went to Moorehouse College. There was no track and field there.
I was always more of an academic than a jock.
I wanted to go to medical school. But, I never got a college scholarship.
My father was also a principal of a school and mother was a curriculum advisor. Both were educators.
