I'm not a big fan of those who are egotistical and so outspoken.

I really liked it best when I was a nobody.

You don't really want to load up a whole lot, probably anything more than four hours before the race. I needed something to make me feel full, but I certainly didn't want it to make me feel stuffed.

Sports and politics don't mix.

Then going out on the ice usually about 15 minutes before and certain things I would do for the different races, aspects that you run through your mind.

In general, I enjoy athletes who have a strong character who let their abilities speak for themselves.

How much you move affects your strength, your power, your balance, how you look, how you think, how well you withstand the high winds and rain showers of life and how long you will stand. Everyone needs concentrated doses of several kinds of movement to remain functional.
