I was an avid swimmer and was state champ at age 12.
From Apolo Ohno
Champions all get kicked when they're down.
Who cares if somebody dances better? Doing my very best is rewarding internally.
When there's somebody racing side-by-side, when somebody's right next to me and they're pushing and we're both tired, we're both fatigued, I want to be able to beat them mentally.
I don't have great running technique, but I like to run. I've heard from countless people that the last six miles of the marathon is all mental. But what better city to have this in than New York City where there are millions of people there supporting you?
Broadcasting is definitely in my cards for the future, and I'm determined to work hard at it - to perfect it and create my style and niche.
I love to shop. Clothes, electronics, and I love jewelry, especially yellow gold.
Every Olympic athlete prepares differently. For me, I am 100 percent into the sport. And if I decide to really make a crucial career decision to say, 'This is something I want to do,' I want to leave no stone unturned in my preparation.
I tend to build bulk and muscle easily, and running seems to make sure I stay kind of stringy, if that makes sense.
Generally, speed skaters don't run that much. I'm a little bit of an exception in that I run a lot.
