Ms. Namita Nayyar:
You have participated in various Championships like the Olympic Games, Commonwealth Games, etc. Tell us about one of the most memorable experience that you may have had at these Championships.
Ms. Genevieve LaCaze:
By far my most memorable experience was the Rio Olympics in 2016. I surpassed all expectation and made two Olympic finals in two different events. My aim was to make the steeplechase final however I left Rio racing 40 laps of the track, 3 personal bests, making two Olympic finals, and a top 10 finish. If it wasn’t already a dream come true, 10 days later I set a new Australian record in the 3000m steeplechase in Paris to cap off a surreal couple of weeks.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Advice and motivational words to the inspiring and budding steeplechase athletes who all are your fans, they shall like to know from you, what they should do for their climb to ladder of success in this field?
Ms. Genevieve LaCaze:
The best piece of advice I have would be to make it fun. I competed against so many young talented girls growing up but not many continued in the sport because they stopped enjoying the training and competing. I have always had so much love for the sport – even during adversity. Running is my passion and from as early as I can remember, it has made my life better. I enjoy the healthy lifestyle running encourages and I will run for as long as I can. I live by the wise words of Steve Prefontaine – “to give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift”.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
