Cathy Freeman
The thing I do best is laugh.
Cathy Freeman
I decided that I was going to go to the Olympics to see if I had made the right decision to retire because I knew that if I'd made the mistake of retiring I would know during and after those Games in Athens.
Cathy Freeman
I'm drinking lots of herbal tea.
Cathy Freeman
