In 1998, she earned a spot on the World Championship team in the 100m and the 4 x 100m. She was a finalist in the 100m and won a gold medal in the 4 x 100m while setting a new American record.<br><br> Now, Chryste's concentrating on the 100m at the U.S. Outdoor Championships later this year. "I doubt anybody has picked me to win," she laughs, "but I feel stronger this year and really think this will be it. And like I said, I like it when they doubt me. I like to defy the odds." Helping those odds this year is the fact that she has completely recovered from a hamstring injury that hampered her performance at last year's Nationals. Working with a chiropractor in Orinda, California, Dr. Michael Ripley, who uses a special treatment to enhance performance called Active Release Techniques soft-tissue management, Chryste feels that the injury is behind her. "The only time I notice it now is when it gets cold; it still kind of aches."<br><br>Her training in the weight room consists primarily of bench presses, lat pulldowns, squats, cleans and leg curls. She lifts four days a week and squats heavy, but uses moderate weights on her other lifts. Chryste is 5-foot-7 and weighs 134 pounds. As with her weight training, Chryste performs plyos four times a week. She also does box jumps in the gym, hurdle hops, and standing long and triple jumps on the track, in addition to her sled work. She says that she never gets tired of training; still, she knows that a good athlete needs more than just the gym."I look around and see a lot of people today who are choosing not to finish school. Most of them would rather work and earn money than get an education. In my family education was valued, but in other families how soon you can earn money is more important. But if you put it in perspective, education is a vehicle. In sports, it's a way to get a free ride. If you can be an athlete who can make the grades, then you're more of an asset. Kids who just concentrate on sports don't understand that schools also look at whether you're going to be able to stay eligible all those years." <br><br>She has not forgotten her own academic pursuits, and says that her parents won't let her forget them either. "Remember, my mom's a teacher!" While med school had been a high priority when she entered Stanford, she's now thinking the Ph.D. program and a career in psychology may be more to her liking. Chryste has been very active as a motivational speaker to junior and high school students, and she feels much more work needs to be done to motivate kids today. "Opportunities are out there if you try to do well in school and excel in your athletic endeavors, but a lot of kids don't know this," she says."Collegiate sports for women are only now really being recognized. I'm excited for the young women who are in high school because things are changing so fast for women in sports. Just look at what Atlanta did for women's baseball. And, now we have women's hockey." <br><br>Chryste hopes that the public will give more recognition tocԕSE*+13EzJ  'қGaA>jNTQLC LH+C^Cވy|3>ozG,J Mjx>U9To^cʺnݺVJ&RUn|ukqI)hg>kZMƇϧ&ɡlkoۛk3WEFo ?Z7n$ʶblvhhyp3#Ph ( )IaI@Q(PEP)Z.F01XП/ֵlh*$ɥ@[28Dz8Rw8Z]hc#&:$UCptZS[hQ9ۃar~g}eTzJ۫BGCq]Ϡ#c5->-ONe%BCuĸ5Mf075Ps q=#e dzS1]O/5~7ڄ>mhH)Dqcy |8+eElhJ@n͢ ֥jkR 6WQأnrb?E귱YdC>v_ 쬬|kWφOxX8?JV;/ܬ=(rHSrB/KO"坋ƣݭ9|Q?٣s>bkaW׭tQJ=\
