I’m really proud of myself I was able to get myself back into a place in sport where I was, and be positive about life again. At the age of 62 right now, I’m so blessed. Beyond, I mean, I get emotional.

“Athletics is really important in daily life, to see older people running, my age, and they are still competing very strongly is very encouraging.”

“If you want to do something, you do it, go for it! You don’t have to be in this. I’m swimming against myself, I’m living against myself.”
