People see me now and ask if I'm still running. I may look like I am, but I'm really not. People think I still run every day but I ran for 25 years and I deserve to not do anything but walk or ride the bike with my kids.

I dont have a thyroid anymore. I had radioactive iodine treatment, which destroyed my thyroid. I take medication every day.

Remember, all things are possible to those who believe!

You can never give up or get down on yourself. A true champion keeps his or her chin up and always takes life one race at a time.

My life is a blessing every day that I get up. God saved my feet. How am I not going to use them?

I have a real passion for children. I always wanted to teach and only became an athlete because my parents told my brother Parenthesis and me that we should use any God-given talent we had.
