As a 9/10 year old my dream was to be a sprinter like Cathy Freeman. Unfortunately I chose the wrong lifestyle am no where near fit or healthy right now as a 28year old just wish I did keep pursuing the dream I may have made it. I just thought if someone beat me in a race it was over for me and that's why I gave up. I hope other people don't give up on their dreams
