More quotes by Madeline Manning

I didn’t know that I opened the door for women. But now I look at it and you see all these women of different colors just topping not only the middle distance that I ran but the distance and ultra distances. That was pretty cool that I was able to do that.

I would get threatening letters … saying ‘You shouldn’t be there, and why don’t you move out the way and let a white girl do it.

I was very young, I was a sophomore in college, was on a team that had some of the top sprinters in the world, the TigerBelles.

What kept me steady and balanced was to know that God created me to be there – he believed in me so I decided to run for his glory. It was a change in direction for my sports development.

And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
