I don't even have my own computer.

For kids it's natural to be competitive.

People tend to like an athlete's performance, but if you don't get a feeling for the individual, you're not very emotive about them.

Sport and health are so important to our nation that they deserve to be right at the front of people's minds.

Sport fosters many things that are good; teamwork and leadership.

We crave instant success these days. If you are a really good sprinter and long jumper, you don't want to spend two or three years on a whole new set of events. You're used to doing well and it's difficult to give that up.

In my heart of hearts my motivation would always have been to be the best, and I think that athletics is probably what I was built for.
