It's nice to look good and have a great body, but you enjoy your life so much more if you are fit. That is the message I definitely want to get out.

There's such a stereotype about men and women. Obviously, people think men are faster and stronger and all these other things, and I don't want people to get sucked into that anymore. I want them to realize that the women are out here and doing just as awesome things. They can be just as great, too.

Usually I like to work out in the morning before I eat. After the workout, I like to eat a banana and definitely some oatmeal for a little bit extra boost.

I am very amazed by the runners out there because I like jog to the garbage can outside sometimes, and I get tired.

I've never been afraid of much, and like any normal kid, I liked to push the limits of what I could do.

I like visualizing a lot, so the night before a competition and right before, I will visualize myself. I'll close my eyes, turn away from everybody, and just see myself doing exactly what I want to accomplish.
