Quotes

  • "So much talk was, “Women can’t break records.” That was so annoying; to hear over and over what women couldn’t do. Then to go out and break the record — not just break it, but absolutely demolish it. It felt really good on a woman’s side, to show that women could break records."
  • "But once we get on the track, it’s business. It’s my career; this is what I do, what I love. And it’s my job."
  • "You have to bring your best, because that brings out the best in everyone."
  • "And I want to make it perfectly clear that I’ll never run away from a race. I’m always willing to race. The training can be difficult, especially to know that it’s okay to rest. But I’m a competitor and I want to race anybody, anytime, anywhere."
  • "Sometimes I don’t think people realize that athletes are human, too. Yes, we’re paid to be ready to race, but we’re still human."
  • "Every year, things just get harder and you have to train to win, to be the best."
