"I was really gangly and uncoordinated as a kid. I couldn't even do a cartwheel," said Turlington, 31, in the September issue of Shape magazine. She's come a long way since. She has climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and become one of the highest-paid models in the world. She also graduated with honors from New York University with a degree in philosophy.(AP Photo/Louis Lanzano, File)
