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.

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.

Every moment is not great and sometimes those are the moments in which you learn the most.

Try to think of working out and healthy eating as a lifestyle. Rather than go on a diet or try a crazy exercise routine, try making them something you do every day.
Allyson Felix
I feel like my name completely does not belong on that list [of great athlets], but I'm completely grateful for everything that they [Jackie Joyner-Kersee, Florence Griffith-Joyner and even Wilma Rudolph] have done.

I am a big believer in visualization. I run through my races mentally so that I feel even more prepared.
