  1. Very cool.

    Love hearing that Sydney’s nice; it’s always great when great athletes are also great people.

    Wow, how tall is Allman’s coach? She herself is like 6-0.

  8. Even before reading the comment I recognised that woman from the weightlifting (as well as Snoop & Flav). Those ladies were crazy strong!

  9. I saw Snoop and was going to ask you what he was like. Then I kept swiping and you got pics with so many cool people. I want to know what they’re all like now lol
