More quotes by Allyson Felix
I am a sprinter, and I love to go fast. It's very difficult for me to be patient and follow a race strategy or conserve energy.
Allyson Felix
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.
Allyson Felix
I think it's very important, even if you're not in organized sports, but just to be active, to be healthy.

I love the relays. Track is such an individual sport, so it's fun to do something together.

Jackie Joyner-Kersee is actually someone I have a personal relationship with and who continues to do amazing things in her community. I continue to be inspired by her. If I can emulate myself after someone it's her and I just hope to have that effect on my community and continue to go on to do things like she has.

What's really heavy on my heart is fighting physical inactivity.

I don't have a sprinter's body.
Allyson Felix
I know that they [Jackie Joyner-Kersee, Florence Griffith-Joyner and even Wilma Rudolph] have paved the way and they have been a source of inspiration.

Everyone sees the glory moments, but they don't see what happens behind the scenes.

Parents have to understand, that even if their child isn't showing athletic excellence in a certain sport, they still need to be involved. They don't need to be involved in a military type of setting, they just need to get out and play and enjoy themselves and find it themselves.
Allyson Felix
As you get older, there are going to be a few more challenges, but thankfully I'm still feeling good.
Allyson Felix
I'm really laid back but I still like to dress up sometimes.
Allyson Felix
I think I'm a person who is proud of my [Christian] faith and where I come from.
Allyson Felix
If I wasn't active and involved in different sports and just moving around, I wouldn't have even known that I had the potential to become an Olympian.
Allyson Felix
I definitely think I put more pressure on myself. I can be hard on myself and super-critical and very rarely satisfied or happy. I am my biggest critic.
Allyson Felix
I am a big believer in visualization. I run through my races mentally so that I feel even more prepared.
Allyson Felix
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!
Allyson Felix
For me, my faith is the reason I run. I definitely feel I have this amazing gift that God has blessed me with, and it's all about using it to the best of my ability.
