I still had feelings of missing out on the true college experience and being on the team and all of those things.

But

So I, yeah, I went for, you know, I went for trying to make the team.

It was really late.

It was in, it was probably around the time, a little bit before that race in Mexico City.

Because for me, I had always looked at it as like, this is going to be college.

You know, this is my ticket to college and to get it paid for.

And so I always had that mindset.

And also because we found it late, I don't think I really knew it was like a career path.

We knew no one who was a professional track athlete.

And so I think it was just, you know, even the possibility.

And then, you know, once I had done really well and I started to like,

look and see, oh, you know, there are these people who, you know, who do this for a living.

It's like, oh, wow, that sounds amazing.

So not too long after that race, it was like, okay, this is what I want to do.

And I really want to take it all the way.

So what was the conversation?

It's so funny because I was kind of at this place in my career where I was looking for new management.

I was going to a new sponsor.

And so there was a lot of change happening.
