I always got my work done before playing.

I went to Moorehouse College. There was no track and field there.

The joint lubrication was not what it was when I was competing, and I decided that not having arthritis or rheumatism for the rest of my life was a lot more important to me than returning to the track.

I overcame size with mechanics.

One of my major competitors was Harold Smith. Smith beat me in 1977. I was loafing during that competition.

In digital world, sport provides opportunity to bring people together.

I was always more of an academic than a jock.
