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

An athlete and actor are really two different temperaments, night and day. As an athlete you really keep things out and as an actor you really bring things in.

I've found that a person does not need protein from meat to be a successful athlete. In fact, my best year of track competition was the first year I ate a vegan diet.

My thoughts before a big race are usually pretty simple. I tell myself: Get out of the blocks, run your race, stay relaxed. If you run your race, you'll win... channel your energy. Focus.

I like the pressure of having to perform so people will come to me.

Track and field is the best way to reach out for kids. It doesn't matter how fast you are. You always want to beat someone.

I don't intend to stay around any longer than I feel I can be No. 1.
