I always wanted to be a professional athlete. I love my life.

I don't think children have competed with my career, they have clarified it. My children ground me. They make me honest.
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.

When I was a kid, I wanted to be a footballer and racing driver, like all kids.
As a child, I wanted to be an athlete, a professional tennis player or something like that.
