As You Get Older, There Are Going

I Had Worked So Hard; That Was My Opportunity. And My Mom Was Just Able To Turn It Around For Me. She Helped Me To Be Able To See The Other Side Of Things And That This Is Not The End For Me.

I Never Let Track Define Me. That's Something That's Really Important To Me. That's What I Do And It's What I Love, But I Think By Having Other Things I'm Passionate About And Interested In, It Helped Me To Come Back. It Helped Me To Have Renewed Love For The Sport By Being Able To Step Away And Then Come Back.

There Are Moments That Aren't Great. And I Think It's Amazing For People To Be Able To Have Some Insight, To Be Able To See The Support System And What Really Happens.

The Biggest Way I Stay Motivated Is To Run With A Group Of Friends. Sometimes It's Hard To Get Going By Yourself, But If You Have A Plan And A Meeting Time, You Know This Run Will Happen For Sure. It's A Way To Have Fun - While Also Getting In A Workout. Plus It Distracts From Pain, Helps You Fight Fatigue, And Gives You That Extra Push.

I Think Every Genius Person Has A Bit Of Insanity.
