I myself am frustrated in just where sports are at. It's a hard thing when you're out there working every day, and you know that someone else is cheating and they may not necessarily get caught.

More quotes by Allyson Felix
I have learned that track doesn't define me. My faith defines me. I'm running because I have been blessed with a gift.

I spend around two and half hours on the track every day running and another 2 hours in the weight room lifting weights with my strength coach.

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.
