Hi guys. Ever since I was little, I only had one dream - to win a gold medal at the Olympics.
When I was 27 years old, my dream came true. I'll never forget that night at the Sydney 2000 Games as I crossed the finish line. It was as if the whole of Australia was cheering for me. Sometimes I still wonder how it happened.
When I was growing up, I felt no different to anyone else. I loved having fun with my brothers, sleeping over at nanna's and going horse-riding with my dad. But I especially loved to run. With the help of my family, coaches and teachers, I became the best female 400-metre runner in the world.
I hope you enjoy my story and that it inspires you to chase after your dreams too!
