Looking Back, I'm So Proud To Have

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.

It's Not What Other People Believe You Can Do, It's What You Believe.

I Dont Have A Thyroid Anymore. I Had Radioactive Iodine Treatment, Which Destroyed My Thyroid. I Take Medication Every Day.

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.

Looking Back, I'm So Proud To Have Gone To Five Olympics - I Believe Only Three Other Americans Have Achieved That.
