Ana Gabriela Guevara

by Nancy from Tampico, Mexico


For me a hero is a person that really fights for the things he or she wants. A hero is a person that never gives up and always perseveres and tries to do things even when they look impossible. For me that person is Ana Gabriela Guevara. I admire very much her attitude of never giving up and always persevering.

She went to the Pan American Games in 1999 where she did a really good job. Then she started going to international track meets and won many consecutive first place medals. In 2004 she went to Atenas Grecia to the Olympic Games where she came in second place.

What I really admire about Ana Gabriela Guevara is her winning attitude. I don't really care how many gold medals she has won. The thing that people should look at is that she is a winner because she is a person who has persevered. She is honest and works really hard.

I really think that Ana Guevara will influence my life. I will never give up and always keep after things that I really want. I think that when a person really likes something she does, she should do it with all the love and passion of the world, and that is something that I think Ana Guevara has done.

In conclusion, a hero for me is someone who always will try things even when they look impossible. People that will never give up and always do their best to realize what they really want. If they see that things go the wrong way, they will always see a solution by doing things better or being a better person.
