SIMONE BILESFor me to compete at the highest level, training and living a healthy lifestyle is an everyday focus for me, and I’m excited to be a part of the Everyday Awesome team!
SIMONE BILESI’m the first Simone Biles.
SIMONE BILESMost athletes get intimidated once they see how many fans are out there, but it almost calms me down in a way because I think of it as a fun way to show off what I’ve been working on.
SIMONE BILESMy mom, Nellie, got me a rosary at church. I don’t use it to pray before a competition. I’ll just pray normally to myself, but I have it there in case.
SIMONE BILESWe’ve always had each other’s backs in and out of competition. We support each other the most because we’re the only ones that know what it’s like to go through what we do, and so we can’t be more thankful for each other. We’re like sisters.
SIMONE BILESIt was a very long and hard decision. My dad kept telling me, ‘You can always go to college, but you can’t always go pro.’ That made sense to me.
SIMONE BILESI never thought about competing in the Olympic Games when I was growing up.
SIMONE BILESIt hurts my head, but it’s fine because it’s something I do every day. You can’t avoid the gymnastics questions.
SIMONE BILESI think we have other things to worry about than some Zika virus.
SIMONE BILESMy parents make sure we have everything we need so that we compete to the best of our abilities.
SIMONE BILESI don’t necessarily have favorite brands.
SIMONE BILESIn the morning, I usually get up between 7:40 A.M. and 7:45 A.M., and then I’ll brush my teeth, do my hair, and just throw on my leotard and my clothes and go to the kitchen.
SIMONE BILESI’m not a celebrity. I’m just the same Simone. I just have two Olympic Gold medals now.
SIMONE BILESFather served in the Air Force for 22 years.
SIMONE BILESI don’t fear what will happen, but you just get ahead of yourself, like, ‘Oh my gosh, I wish it would happen now.’
SIMONE BILESI am like any typical teenager.
