I give everything I had and more I’m out 👋🏾.
Coach Cray checking in now 🫡
I’ll keep this short because if I start, I’ll end up writing a whole book about Queen.
This woman has been by my side since 2008—more than half her life. She’s been there through my highest highs and lowest lows, always going above and beyond for me. In 2013, I was ready to walk away from track, but she decided to give it one more year. I couldn’t let her do it alone, so I decided to run. To see her track journey end that year hurt because I knew how much she loved track. Even though she didn’t reach her own goals in track, I’m forever grateful for her helping me reach mine. Without her support, I know my track career would have ended a long time ago.
To Coach Cray:
A lot of people probably saw you at meets and thought you were just there because you’re my wife—not knowing the hours of planning, preparation, learning, researching, and teaching you put in to help me try and reach my full potential. In 2019, letting you take over coach me was one of the best decisions of my career. My times might not show it, but I know you’re one of the best coaches in the world. One of my biggest disappointments is that my body couldn’t hold up while you were coaching me. I’m so grateful to have called you my coach. Thank you for all the sacrifices you made to help me chase my dreams.
To my wife, Samantha:
I don’t even have the vocabulary to describe what you’ve done and what you mean to my career. I’d probably need an IEP to help me write it all out. So, I’ll just say this: Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’m blessed to have the rest of our lives to keep showing you how grateful I am for your love and support throughout my track career and life.
Love You Queen @mama.cray
