I like being part of the Great Britain setup. I like feeling I'm at a race that is important and the pressure that goes with it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Although I come from the world of swimming... my strong point is the running race, and it is the one I enjoy the most. It's where I have had a slight edge over my rivals.
I'm a very goal-oriented person, so I look at the specific demands of a certain race and tailor my training towards that.
I like to be comfortable, but I do enjoy being a British gent and dressing up a bit.
Nothing means more to me than racing for my country, the Queen, the Royal Family, and the people back home that support me.
Since I became a favorite in every race, it's just another burden that I have to bear.
For me, it's about being a star, being a superstar, and not just winning a world title but becoming the best-ever British fighter this country has ever had. That's what I am, and that's what I intend to do.
For me, the American Dream was to go racing; for others, it's to pursue whatever their goals may be.
I just love the American spirit of racing. It feels just great to get involved with that.
I try to keep in mind that it's a long journey. It's not a race. It's about staying focused, continuing to do good work, make my family and community proud; that's all I really want to do... and pay my bills.
I like to relax a lot the night before a race. I like having people around me. I don't like being on my own, particularly. Music helps psych you up, too.
