I grew up in a Christian home with amazing parents.

I grew up in a very devoutly Christian home.

I'm really laid back but I still like to dress up sometimes.

My parents grew up during the Harlem renaissance.

It was not until the end of my freshman year in high school that I thought I could really have a future in track and field. I definitely did not think I could make it to the Olympics back then, though; I was just focused on making it to the state finals!

My faith inspires me so much. It is the very reason that I run. I feel that my running is completely a gift from God and it is my responsibility to use it to glorify him.
