Jodie Williams calls time
Jodie Williams left Paris Olympic Relay Medal, then is then called a pictorial career, who saw him in the championships 60, 100. 200 to 400. He felt the right time for me. I’m doing this sport for a long time because I can remember. I’m just 31 years old, and it just makes me feel the right time to move forward. I know that many athletes are waiting until they don’t physically do it anymore, but I’ve never been that way. I have a lot of other things I’m passionate in life to make you want to pursue and now I have just felt a good time. “
Williams first highlighted in 2009 when he won his 15-year-old World U16 on 100 (11.39) and 200 meters. After the race, he said: “Amazing. It’s very important that it is so amazing that he won … I didn’t come here, expecting it to shock. ” The next year, in the world teenagers, he was the first in 100 and in the second and in 200.
I asked him what he was 16 or 17 years old in his career.Oh, he had high expectations. Huge expectations, I think at that moment. I gathered a lot to win everything. I would never lose anything, so I didn’t know what it meant. And it seemed to me that it’s just a very linear path if we just go on this, we will be an Olympic champion. So in the next four years I couldn’t see that it doesn’t really happen. Baby I have great expectations and big dreams and great ambitions, and I still take him to me. But the realities of sports were definitely slow, but he expected many Olympic medals, but it’s not always the case. At that age I don’t think everything was a surprise. In my career, there was more such a help that I was able to remove it than a surprise being there. “
From 2005-2010, he was invincible, winning about 150 * sequential race.
He finished running at three Olympics and won medals at the Olympic, European (Closed and Outdoor) and the fourth place in the world. It was a very strong career, if not coincides with the senior level, youth and junior achievements. There were injuries to the problem of ham that kept him from the 2012 Olympics and what he described as “My Body Throw Tanks” later in his career. Of course, the injuries are part of sports, but in case of Jodie, they seemed to happen in important and crazy times.
Williams agrees, but it is not filled with regret. man? I Learned the radical acceptance as my career was my career. It taught me a lot. I didn’t like it every second but I look back, I really thank you for my career. Of course, some things were injured, which could be much bigger, and I feel that I could make a lot more medals. But at the end of the day it didn’t happen. And I’m in peace with it. It doesn’t torture me or something like that. “
Some athletes are afraid of the end of their career. I remember telling me that the rest of his life was anti-use. It’s not Jodie’s thinking. He is looking forward to new challenges and new opportunities. Just not immediately. “It simply came to our notice then. Frankly, I burn up from faith, and I just want to restart a little creative, but whatever I do will be unequivocally creative. I’m starting an online magazine public type for women. It will be the basis of the performance, so it will always be like an online magazine. I am a large fan of the print media, so I will definitely be involved in those types of spaces. Something about coffee, definitely. But I I’m just still raging together. I received the good ideas of the industry I’m involved in but I am just allowing items to equate. But at the moment, I just restart a little creative and let myself go to my body and my mind just rest a little bit. I think it’s infrequent that we get that opportunity in life, so I accept it. “
In the interview, my final question was if he was 17 years old, he did everything.
“Yes, I would do my best. It has been the most incredible experience. Even the best of the best, it’s amazing. I would definitely do it again. I would do it a little differently. But only slightly, I think. I would just take less seriously at such a young age. I would let myself live a little more, be a little more man and give a little more thanks. But out of it, I think I would take every chance in the same way, but just a little more than a little more than myself for myself That’s … I was very strict, and I was in a very, very structured environment, and I would just be slightly weakening. “
In Part 2, Jodie refers to some career needs.
* I have read 149 as well as 151 but I don’t pay enough to give time to count.
