Ahead of the Birmigham Games in the United Kingdom , Barrie recently resigned as Sierra Leone fastest international athlete. She pens down an emotional note stating that ”I’m crying as I write this. Those that understand the blood, sweat, and tears that go behind pursuing a dream with your whole heart will understand this emotion.
Of finally accomplishing your goal and deciding it’s time to move on.
Track & Field was the air I breathed for 17 years since I was a little girl. The only dream I ever had was to be an Olympian. It didn’t happen in the way I imagined, but I still accomplished it.
It was a bittersweet moment. To finish my Olympic race and just feel in my mind, body, and soul that I was done. That I had no more to give.
Done with this amazing, whirlwind life of being a pro athlete.
Track & Field gave me once-in-a-lifetime experiences, enabled me to travel the world and be coached by amazing individuals. It taught me how to be brave when no one believed in me and how to stand tall when a whole country was counting on me to represent them. I’m so thankful to God for this experience.
Now, the book closes on this part of my life. I will always reread it with happiness and pride for all I did. Thank you to everyone who supported me and cheered me on. I’m ready to start my new chapter.”
