Athletes don't have much use for poking around in their childhoods, because, introspection doesn't get you anywhere in a race.

I am just coming into my best years. This year I did new things; stretching and abdominal work.

Hope that is the only antidote to fear.

Anything is possible, but you have to believe and you have to fight.

Life to me is a series of false limits and my challenge as an athlete is to explore those limits
