Quanera Hayes is an Olympic 400m runner, World Champion medal holder, and mother to 3 year old Demetrius. She talks about making her first Olympic team, mistakes and forgiveness at the Olympics, her faith, her mental training, and how she raises her son in community.

This interview was done as research for the book I’m writing about the mental lessons learned and practiced in running and motherhood. I’m sharing these recordings so you can come along in this book writing process with me!
