Lolo Jones, @LoloJones, is one of the more active athletes on Twitter. She is also one of the most entertaining athletes on the platform. As the Games are just around the corner lets have a look at some of tweets in recent weeks.

She sure knows how to paint a picture.

Sure, it is humorous, but it also is a half-truth as a lot of track athletes struggle with money issues.

Distance runners be stealing all the bananas at dinner. Mario Kart tactics only work racing peeps in video games, not in real life sillies

If only it did work that way. I would love to see some red turtle shells utilized in 2016. Or perhaps a race on Rainbow Road.

same here.He's not a director but dictator RT @NickSymmonds: London DL meet... gonna race but director,Ian Stewart, called me "a liability"

— Lolo Jones (@lolojones) July 13, 2012

Jones and Nick Symmonds were blocked from a race by Ian Stewart. He called the athletes liabilities due to their secondary sponsors.
