We always spend more time on the throwing events and a little bit more on the long jump. They're my weaker events - they don't come as naturally to me as running and jumping. I like the hurdles and the high-jump, I'm a springy, speedy athlete so those suit me.
I grew up with all mothers, all women. I come from a long line of matriarchs, very strong women.
I want to still be singing at 70 years old. I want to be open to the dreams I haven't even dreamed up.
