We typically don't choose our athletes until about a month prior to the Games because anything can happen.

Go into the sport because you have fun doing it, not because of 'what ifs' and dreams of gold medals. That way, no matter what happens, you win.

Other people may not have had high expectations for me... but I had high expectations for myself.

I'm a competitor. I really enjoyed the race more than just going out and running to run.

I thought about running a marathon a long time ago, but I'm just not a runner.

I don't believe that there's anyone in the world without a competitive bone in their body.

When I go in to compete, whether it's gymnastics or anything else, I do my own thing. I compete with myself.
