Olympic runner Morolake Akinosun fulfills goals she tweeted 5 years ago

In 2011, Olympic runner, Morolake Akinosun who was 17 at that time tweeted that in 2016, she would have graduated from a University and be going to the Olympics. Fast forward to 2016 and she has fulfilled her goal.

Morolake is going to the Rio  Olympics in Brazil, as a member of the USA Track & Field 4x100m relay pool. She’s a 22-year-old who’s set to graduate from Texas University  this year, and she has already won a Gold medal for the U.S. in the 2015 Pan American Games.
