Do I feel any pressure as the most decorated Winter Olympian in American history? None at all. The only pressures that I know I face are those of how to pay it forward: How can I continually make a positive impact in people's lives, help others achieve their dreams, create their own Olympic mindset, creating champions within themselves?

Champions all get kicked when they're down.

A lot of times, some of my best ideas happen when I'm running. That's when I do my best thinking.

We all naturally want to become successful... we also want to take shortcuts. And it's easy to do so, but you can never take away the effort of hard work and discipline and sacrifice.

One things guys have to remember is consistency... You can't make up for three years of eating poorly in just one workout.

As I grow older, I have a growing curiosity about my other half. My dad did a wonderful job raising me, and I wouldn't change it for the world, but at the same time there is a growing curiosity about my other half.

For me, the '60s in the automotive industry was awesome. The cars are heavy, huge, rolling works of art.
