Stretching was a major part of my preparation.

I didn't get an athletics scholarship at a major school.

I always got my work done before playing.

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

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

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.
