After getting banned, it had felt like I had lost everything but track was that one thing that stopped me from spiraling out of control.

Let's hear from the people who raised me! To start it off, let’s take it back to 2004. The Olympics in Athens, Greece was a crazy time for the family.

Maybe the most consistent year of my career, 2015! Even when I was ranked #1 - when Bolt came around, you had to be on guard. Going back to Doha in 2015, where I ran away with 1st place and a 9.7. Coming off Doha, people were talking and I put everyone on notice. I was running 9.7s consistently, I was in such a rhythm. From my broken ankle to a strange 2016 Olympics at Rio, dealing with the Zika Virus, it wasn’t a typical Olympic experience. Finally, climbing the mountain one more time, and beating Bolt in his last race! Bringing back the Gold and sitting on top of the throne!  https://www.instagram.com/justingatlin/ https://www.instagram.com/rg2eagle/ https://www.instagram.com/tidalleague/

This is Ready Set Go - with me, Justin Gatlin and my guy Rodney Green!  Day 1 in the courtroom, I relive the feelings, emotions, and what was about to be the uphill battle my family and I would face. I've never felt alone in my career, my parents are my rock, the toughest part was watching them deal with the stress. I had to endure an unorthodox system, I went through three lawyers and a million dollars to prove my case. I went from the “guy” to not wanting to be ME anymore. No matter how hard it got, my love for the sport never wavered. The driving force to compete and be free drove my desire to get back. 4 years later, I was REBORN! https://www.instagram.com/justingatlin/ https://www.instagram.com/rg2eagle/ https://www.instagram.com/tidalleague/
