Jenner explained that she had never thought she would achieve everything she had as an athlete. “I didn’t never thought of myself as the most talented athlete,” she further added. However, the Olympian explained that she was the “hardest working one out there.” 

“Honestly, if I had not been dyslexic if I had not been gender dysphoric if I didn’t have all these issues as a young kid,” Jenner said. “Honestly, I don’t think I would have needed sports, and it wouldn’t have been that important to me.”

Before transitioning into a woman, Caitlyn was Bruce Jenner. Jenner had won the Olympic gold medal in the decathlon with record-breaking 8,616 points. After his retirement, Bruce Jenner tried a lot of things, including acting and sports broadcasting.
