Gold Medalist Misty May – “I’m stronger than I think I am. Mentally, physically.”


If you’ve ever watch the Olympics the names Misty May and Kerri Walsh are familiar to you. The Olympic championship duo will head to London in hopes of their third consecutive gold medal. Beach volleyball may be a hobby for most people but when you watch Misty and Kerri play you know it’s more than a hobby. USATODAY recently interviewed Misty and she talks about a stint dressed as a hot dog, her last Olympic Games and more.


USATODAY interview excerpt:

A partner, marriage, friendship: it’s kind of all wrapped into one because Kerri and I are together so much. You kind of have to know the person. You try to learn more and you want to learn more about the person fighting next to you.

I’m stronger than I think I am. Mentally, physically.

It’s important just interacting with people. I love to go back to my old college and workout at the rec center. I’m just a normal athlete hanging out with students and they work out next to me.
