My life has been a whirlwind since the '94 Olympics.
It brings a smile to my face every time I look in the record book and see my name with the likes of Hutson and Lance Alworth and Raymond Berry, some of the fabled receivers of the NFL. It's all like a dream to me. I can't believe it's true.
The ultimate dream of an athlete is to compete in the Olympics. For us athletes, that is the zenith. There is nothing beyond that.
Cricket, like all sport, offers glory to few and a lifetime of it to even fewer. For the investment it demands, it offers short careers that end when people in other professions are starting to flourish.
The Olympics remain the most compelling search for excellence that exists in sport, and maybe in life itself.
It is effectively a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be involved, and the chance to win an Olympic medal would be amazing.
At primary school, it was always me and this other girl, Lauren, who would fight over who was the fastest every year. I was quicker, but for some reason, she always got the glory leg in the relay team. That used to annoy me.
We want to win trophies and be in the record books.
People tell me an Olympic medal is a life-changing event. Except I don't even think about the medal unless someone asks about it.
I think about all the time how I'll be able to say that during my career, I played with the greatest players of my era. Hopefully, I'll be able to say I won championships with those players.
The Olympic Games were created for the exhaltation of the individual athlete.
I quite enjoy sport, and I'm now an Olympic champion. It's a bit weird, isn't it?
Because sports are a religion, it's difficult to imagine a world without the Olympics, and to be sure, they have given us many glorious moments.
There is no greater glory that can befall a man that what he achieves with the speed of his feet or the strength of his hands.
