I'm a competitor. I really enjoyed the race more than just going out and running to run.

We may train or peek for a certain race, but running is a lifetime sport.

In racing, we have a better chance of it happening quicker because we have attracted good people to come to work for us. It's the beginning of a great adventure, and we're looking forward to it.

I love racing and I love doing well.

Many run primarily for the exercise, but others run to condition themselves for well-publicized races of various distances.

I've found that my athletes run their best races after about 10 weeks of intense training.

Once in a great while I miss the racing, the feeling of winning. That rush. That adrenaline.

We're involved in racing because there's that element of competition. But there's that desire to push yourself beyond the natural comfort zone and the boundaries that are preset if you like, and to be better than the rest.

I just love the American spirit of racing. It feels just great to get involved with that.

Many track and field people know that if I stay relaxed and run my race like I'm supposed to, I will be the winner at the Olympic Games.
