But there's one thing I've learned during these challenging times - you can never give up or get down on yourself. A true champion keeps his or her chin up and always takes life one race at a time. This is how I keep focused on my goals and racing toward my dreams.

More quotes by Gail Devers

I would suggest to anyone who wants to do to move the blocks back to practise it first.

If you are not aiming to finish first, don’t show up. If you go in with the mind-set of finishing third, you’ll give a third-place performance. Success to me is about giving your all.

I’m a good starter, short, compact, powerful and explosive. I’m probably built for indoors.

When I look at what I've accomplished during my life thus far, I realize I've been truly blessed. Now I want to share my good fortune by passing it on and helping others. Then I'll consider myself a true champion.
