My Girlfriend Has Been The Ice.

I Wanted To Play Football Or Be A Boxer, But My Dad Didn't Want That Because Of All The Impact. But In 1992 I Was Watching Short Track, And It Was Obscure, But They Looked Like Superheroes In Their Tight Outfits, And I Thought It Was Amazing. I Wanted To Do That. I Made The National Team At 14.

I Know That Bmw Is Now A Sponsor Of The Usoc - Of The United States Olympic Committee - So They Offer The Use Of Their Aerodynamic Speed-tunnel For Testing And Such For The Athletes, Which Is A Great Advantage. But To Be Honest With You, I'd Rather Have A Free Car!

I Rolled The Second Car That I Ever Owned, A Toyota 4 Runner. This Was Winter In Colorado, Two Weeks Before The 2002 Olympic Trials. I Was Driving In The Outside Lane, And My Rear Tire Caught Some Black Ice, And We Totally Turned Sideways To The Point Where We Were Heading Right Toward The Median.

Champions All Get Kicked When They're Down.

On The Ice, If I Slow Down, I Can Coast Behind Somebody For A Couple Of Laps. If I Slow Down On The Run, It'll Turn Into A Walk.
