I have a real passion for children. I always wanted to teach and only became an athlete because my parents told my brother Parenthesis (sic) and me that we should use any God-given talent we had.

I have a real passion for children. I always wanted to teach and only became an athlete because my parents told my brother Parenthesis and me that we should use any God-given talent we had.
I don't think children have competed with my career, they have clarified it. My children ground me. They make me honest.
As a youngster, I enjoyed sport and my ambition was to be a great sportsman.
As a child I wanted to be a professional athlete or lawyer.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be a footballer and racing driver, like all kids.
My childhood ambition was to be an Olympic swimmer like my aunt, but that died a quick death when I discovered other sports. I swam very competitively till I was 15, then I swam for fun until I was 18. But athletics remain a very big part of my life.
I was an athlete when I was growing up.
I always wanted to be a professional athlete. I love my life.
I was a pretty normal high school kid. I just loved to play sports and had opportunities, and the Lord blessed me with talent, and I just tried to take advantage of it.
As a child, I wanted to be an athlete, a professional tennis player or something like that.
