JUST STOP. ‘Why’ so the next gen can see their careers don’t have to end at 27. Why? So people stop looking at social media posts telling them their life ends at 40. You can do great things at any age. I’ve broken a lot of records over my career. I broke the American indoor record. I broke the world championship indoor record. I became the first female Hurdler to defend her world championship title. I’m the only female athlete that has won a world championships and Bobsled and also in track and field, but this is the achievement that I most proud of. It shows I never gave up.”

What am about to share I have kept bottled for years. How do I want to end my 25 year pro career in sport? I was asked to come back to bobsled for years but how it went down last Olympic cycle I was deeply hurt. I saw some pretty unfair stuff happen and that’s a big reason why I went back to track to show I still fast enough to make the Olympic trials for Track and field.”
