Sporting relatives:

Her partner Nicholas Christie has also represented the United States of America in race walking, and competed at the World Race Walking Team Championships in 2012, 2014, 2016 and 2018. (mercurynews.com, 06 Jul 2021; SportsDeskOnline, 28 Jul 2021)

She competed at the 2016 US Olympic team trials with a calf strain she had sustained in June. (mercurynews.com, 06 Jul 2021)

She began the sport during high school in the United States of America. (sjsuspartans.com, 26 Jun 2021)

Philosophy:

"Trust yourself and don't give up. If you get off track, do what you need to do to get back on, but realise everybody has their own course. What do you need to do that's the healthiest for you? Don't be afraid to do what's best for you and take care of yourself." (today.com, 16 Jul 2021)

RETIREMENT AND RETURN
She retired from the sport in 2004 after struggling with an eating disorder. "When I walked away in 2004 I did not see myself coming back. I was done. I was starving myself and then binging and then trying to work out. Every time I looked in the mirror I would cry." Her friend then convinced her to return to race walking in 2014. "I don't know if I'm a good match [for racing]. If I was going to return to it I needed to know it would be a healthy relationship and wouldn't cause abuse again. This athletic version of me [speaking in 2021] is the best I've ever been." (mercurynews.com, 06 Jul 2021)
