Both parents supported my becoming a world class athlete.

I overcame size with mechanics.

I went to Moorehouse College. There was no track and field there.

I always had to keep improving my skills in order to remain competitive and keep winning.

I don't really see the hurdles. I sense them like a memory.

Lots of people let it go by and never accomplish what they want. I just wanted to see what I could do.

I always got my work done before playing.
