I have never doped. I can say it again, but I've said it for seven years.

The Europeans look down on raising your hands. They don't like the end-zone dance. I think that's unfortunate. That feeling - the finish line, the last couple of meters - is what motivates me.

Motivation can't take you very far if you don't have the legs.

If you're trying to hide something, you wouldn't keep getting away with it for 10 years. Nobody is that clever.

My career is going to be played out year by year. Will I be here in 2004? I don't know. The record won't keep me here. Happiness will.

I can get up in the morning and look myself in the mirror and my family can look at me too and that's all that matters.

Me and running don’t always see eye to eye. Some days it hurts more than others. But it doesn’t mean I don’t do it. I deal with it and I keep running because not everything that is good for you, always feels good for you.
