24 Quotes by Evelyn Ashford

I have a nice family and I’m well rounded.

Before me, sprinters retired at 23 or 24. I run because I still like it, I can make a living, and I feel I was born to do it. And because people tell me I can’t do it.

I can’t run forever. I decided to go back to school for my degree, because I know now there’s more to life than track.

I take pride in everything I do. I don’t want to be handed anything. I want to earn it.

I always want to be the best and if I can’t, I don’t want to run.

I’ve noticed that since I’ve been pregnant I see babies everywhere. I love talking to them. I never used to really like kids that much. I guess it comes out of you naturally.
