It’s just something that I need that rest and recovery time,” she said, (via USA Today).
“I feel guilty. My team has done so well, and my performance was lackluster. I scored lower than my median and what they were counting on, and I placed lower than what would have been expected,” she added.

Her mother, Cathlene Glenn, shared how the criticism shaped her daughter’s wardrobe. “Because she’s strong and she’s muscular, she would used to wear sleeves,” she said. “If you go back and look at all of her costumes, she would wear long sleeves, even if its mesh, she would cover that definition, out of fear that she was gonna be judged as being too masculine.”Now, Glenn embraces her build on and off the ice. “I’m not trying to be lady like,” she said on NBC Local’s “My New Favorite Olympian.” “I’m trying to enjoy my sport.”She has also expanded her artistic choices. “If I want to wear a pantsuit, I’m going to wear a pantsuit,” she said. “When it fits the music and fits the story, it’s not even a question.”Glenn is now the talk of the town as she shared the message of body positivity through the social media video.
