It's Important Not To Make The Gold

Last Year I Was The Favorite Going Into The World Champs In Beijing, But I Felt Like I Had To Do Something Phenomenal In Order To Win. Instead Of Just Having Fun And Competing, It Became "i Want To Win So Bad." But The Person Who Wants It The Most Doesn't Win. It's The Person Who Executes. I Still Look Back On That 200-meter Race And Say What The Hell Happened? I Wasn't Hurt, I Wasn't Sick, The Conditions Were Perfect, And I Ran Like Total Crap.

You Can't Really Explain Competing In Olympic Event To Someone. You Can Say, "oh, That Was Really Tough." And That Literally Means Nothing To Someone. If You Can Give Some Sort Of Comparison, Because That's Really All Track And Field Is About Any Way....usain Bolt Runs A Time And You Get To See What Everybody Else's Time Is. It Would Just Be Interesting To Compare Olympians To Somebody Who Doesn't Train Their Whole Life.

There's Never Going To Be A Decathlon That You're Going To Have 10 Events That Your Satisfied With. You're Always, Always Going To Be Dissatisfied In Something, And That Always Draws You Back To Try To Retry That The Next Time You Do A Decathlon. It's Like You Go For The Perfect 10.

The Desire Definitely Comes From Within. There Are Only A Few People Who Make It To This Level And Those Are The Ones Who Have That Innate Desire.

I Feel It's Right For Me To Wear A Canadian Flag Baseball Hat. Regardless Of The Fact That My Wife Is Canadian And I Would Support Her Throughout, The Spirit Of The Olympic Games Is To Have All These Countries Together To Push Each Other.
