Georgia Bell: 我14岁时获得英国学校冠军，从小就展现出跑步天赋。大学期间，在美国的训练模式并不适合我，压力巨大，成绩下滑，还饱受伤病困扰。毕业后我停止跑步，直到疫情期间才重新开始，并逐渐找回对跑步的热爱。我联系了之前的教练，重新开始训练，并取得了优异的成绩，获得了赞助商的青睐，现在即将参加奥运会。我现在的训练量比以前少，更注重休息和恢复，避免受伤。我改变了对比赛的看法，不再焦虑，而是享受比赛过程，并保持积极乐观的心态。我将恐惧和担忧抛诸脑后，专注于当下，享受比赛的乐趣。即使面临压力和竞争，我也会保持积极的心态，并感激每一次机会。 Laurie Santos: 乔治亚·贝尔的故事非常鼓舞人心，她从一个曾经对跑步感到厌倦的运动员，转变为即将参加奥运会的精英运动员。她的故事体现了坚持、毅力以及积极心态的重要性。她克服了压力和伤病，重新找回了对跑步的热爱，并取得了令人瞩目的成就。她的经历也为我们提供了宝贵的经验：要优先考虑快乐，不要害怕失败，要相信未来还有机会。
