“First of all, I try to be a positive role model.” — Caitlyn Jenner

In the fifth grade I discovered something I could do better than the other kids. One day, the teacher set up a bunch of chairs, and she had everyone run to the chairs and back while she timed us. I had the fastest time in the whole school!

The Montreal Olympics were in July 1976, the bicentennial, at the height of patriotism.

If you're asking your kids to exercise, then you better do it, too. Practice what you preach.

What I went through in 1976, it's the same today: It's about all the pressure that you feel, the anxiety, the family, and everything that surrounds the Games, and then getting there knowing this is your big chance, and you're able to come through. It's such a satisfying thing.
