When I decided to go for four gold medals I planned it out over a few years. It was in four different events and there was a lot to it.

My best year of track competition was the first year I ate a vegan diet.

I'm not a coach and I know it. I'm too busy and it doesn't pay. I'm expensive. But I would always advise.

After I left the podium in Atlanta, I felt so fulfilled in my career that I lost my desire to compete at that level again.

People have a moral standard about what they will do and will not do. At the end of the day someone who cheats has a lower moral standard than someone who does not. And they will cheat in other areas of life as well.

I want to be remembered as a person who felt there was no limitation to what the human body and mind can do and be the inspiration to lead people to do things they never hoped to do.

It's all about the journey, not the outcome.
