Societal pressures can really force girls to look one specific way, when in reality there's not one way to be good.

In so many ways, I just love athletics. It would be really hard for me to pivot outside of the sports world.

Sometimes athletes are expected to lose weight over the course of the season. But usually they work with a professional nutritionist. There's not some arbitrary target that's trying to be reached. It's more go through the process - train hard, eat well.

I like that kind of weather. Constant drizzle. At the Olympic trials in 2012, my mom was, like, 'It's pouring rain out there, Mary. You shouldn't even notice it. You're Irish.'

I'm still the weirdo who enjoys taking organic chemistry.

There's always people that you can turn to and it's just about finding the right support system.

And I know I will run for the rest of my life because the actual act and art and feeling of running I love, and I hope to compete on a high level.

If you don't have good running form, there's only so fast you can go.

When you're healthy, it's easy to stay healthy. But when you're hurt, it's easy to stay hurt.

Rather than force young girls to fend for themselves, we have to protect them.
