I'm Not Maximized Yet.

Last Year I Was The Favorite Going Into The World Champs In Beijing, But I Felt Like I Had To Do Something Phenomenal In Order To Win. Instead Of Just Having Fun And Competing, It Became "i Want To Win So Bad." But The Person Who Wants It The Most Doesn't Win. It's The Person Who Executes. I Still Look Back On That 200-meter Race And Say What The Hell Happened? I Wasn't Hurt, I Wasn't Sick, The Conditions Were Perfect, And I Ran Like Total Crap.

I Wouldn't Say There Was A Moment Of Realization When I Wanted To Be A Runner; It Was Always Just Something I Was.

I'm Not Maximized Yet.

If You Have Done Something Once, You Can Do It Again Or You Can Do It Better. The Beauty Is The Pursuit Of The Limit, Not The Limit Itself. At Least That's What I Hope People Realize.

The Thing I Like About Decathlon Is Also The Thing I Dislike: It's The Maximum Challenge, But Also The Maximum Frustration.
