Disappointment is a sticky one, because no one can steal contentment, joy, gratitude, or peace - we have to give it away.

I feel like I've done everything I can, and what I wanted to do.

It's not only moving that creates new starting points. Sometimes all it takes is a subtle shift in perspective, an opening of the mind, an intentional pause and reset, or a new route to start to see new options and new possibilities.

Before the Olympics, there's always been a part of me that's wanted to write a book about Women's cycling because there isn't one out there and I think there's a lot to be said.

Cycling is such an endurance sport. I don't think it's the worst thing ever to start when you're in your twenties.

Take care of yourself. Eat well, rest, train hard and smart, make time to think and breathe. Be intentional with your time.

I'm still making my decision in the next few days on what path I'm going to take. What really makes me excited now is to continue to give back to the sport.
