Women Fitness President Ms. Namita Nayyar did a candid interview with Ashley Spencer, World Champion 4×400 m relay and  Olympic bronze medalist in 400m hurdles where she talks about her workout, diet, hair & skincare, and her success story.

Namita Nayyar:

You are the 2016 Olympic bronze medalist. Share how your journey in the world of athletics began?

Ashley Spencer:

My journey began at a young age. I was very shy, I was bullied growing up, I had low self-esteem, low confidence. I grew up in a very athletic environment, both of my parents were former high school athletes, my uncle and my aunt had professional careers after college athletics, my older sister and brother did sports growing up so naturally I was athletic at a very young age.

I started playing basketball with my sister at a local church and once we reached high school together, I only played because my sister did. My late grandmother, Joyce Campbell, is the woman who pushed me to step outside of my comfort zone to start running track. I was soon coached by my aunt once I reached high school and the rest is history.
