The Journey of a Champion Born to Run
Before the world knew Masai Russell as an Olympic champion, she was a daughter, a sister, and a little girl growing up in Upper Marlboro, Maryland. Before the gold medal. Every record has a beginning. For her, it started with a family, a dream, years of sacrifice and hard work, and a little girl who simply loved to run.
