Perfect preparation doesn’t exist. Excellent adaptation does.

Make your race a playground, not a proving ground.

Success has a very narrow definition in professional athletics: medals and records, and pursuit of anything outside of that is looked down upon.

I decided to make the life I want, and put energy into what moves me, and not rely on anyone for approval of my choices.

I may not be the lithest, the most talented, or have the fastest time in the field, but I have passion and courage, and sometimes that is enough to do something extraordinary.

When you recognize that failing doesn't make you a failure, you give yourself permission to try all sorts of things.
