I'm a guy who wins medals rather than runs fast times, so for me, what keeps me going is winning medals for my country and making my nation proud.

I love what I do. I want to continue winning medals.

To be part of something special, to be an Olympian and have the chance to win a medal - it's an amazing feeling.

When you've won a gold medal and you're at the top of your sport, everyone's trying to beat you. I find that incredibly motivating.

I've dominated past competitions, but I've sweated blood and tears for every medal. I take nothing for granted, and I'm fully focused on doing my best.

My biggest motivation is knowing what it feels like to win medals and thinking that I want that feeling again. It was incredible to succeed in Beijing and come home to your whole country behind you but, importantly, all your family and friends.

I was blessed with a long career where I won gold medals for myself and my country. Nothing stands out as a disappointment.

I really want to win a medal and would want to win gold. It's my fire and fuel, life and dream, everything.

Trophies and medals have never meant much to me. I've had amazing experiences, which let you feel like you've accomplished something.
