Right now I'd say my favorite fashion designer is Zac Posen.
I was a disruptive child.
As you get older, there are going to be a few more challenges, but thankfully I'm still feeling good
I'm really laid back but I still like to dress up sometimes.
I majored in elementary education, and I have a passion for kids.
I always look back to my first Olympic medal in 2004 in Athens. I was very new to the sport, and it was my first big win at the Olympics.
For me, it's really important to be able to compete on the highest level.
I've got to make sure I'm keeping weight on.
My dad's a pastor and a seminary professor; my mom, she has such great faith.
Try to think of working out and healthy eating as a lifestyle. Rather than go on a diet or try a crazy exercise routine, try making them something you do every day.
I know that I wasn't bred to be an Olympian. I didn't start running until high school, and I just stumbled upon to.
If I wasn't active and involved in different sports and just moving around, I wouldn't have even known that I had the potential to become an Olympian.
I think it's very important, even if you're not in organized sports, but just to be active, to be healthy.
What's really heavy on my heart is fighting physical inactivity.
