Marion Jones visits Google to discuss strength, resilience, and using past experiences to serve as an example of no matter how far you fall down, you can always get back up.
Marion Jones is widely considered to be one of the greatest athletes of all time. She became the first woman to win five medals in a single Olympics in the 2000 Summer Games in Sydney, Australia. After a doping scandal that affected over 20 professional athletes, Marion was the only athlete to serve a prison sentence. She has since used that experience to serve as an example of resilience in the face of overwhelming adversity. In 2010, just four months after the birth of her third child, Marion made an impressive comeback to competitive sports earning a spot on the WNBA's Tulsa Shock. That same year she published her book “On the Right Track” and launched her campaign to help youth make better decisions.
