I like to lift and do cardio to stay in shape, so I can walk the dog on somebody, and I like to be strong, but running 10 miles or a decathlon? That don't support my interests.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm competitive. I like to compete, and that's basically what the decathlon lets me do.
If I'm going to be working out two hours a day, I may as well have a goal... and I'm pretty competitive by nature. A triathlon is a new fun thing.
The thing I like about decathlon is also the thing I dislike: It's the maximum challenge, but also the maximum frustration.
A triathlon is on my bucket list. I started training a long time ago, and my life took a different turn: Things happen; work happens. I will definitely accomplish that at some point!
I thought about running a marathon a long time ago, but I'm just not a runner.
I like running, and I like boxing.
I do a lot of running. Bit of squash, bit of tennis. I don't like feeling out of shape.
I got interested in decathlon because a coach that I had was a big fan of Bruce Jenner, and he just saw the ability in me - but when it came down to it, I knew my best chance at a college scholarship would be in track and field.
Before the decathlon I'm constantly trying to convince myself that I want to do this, that I want to take myself to that place where it's going to hurt and things are going to be tough. But that's like anything - you want to give your best.
I like to run a lot. I play tennis, and I like doing outdoorsy stuff - fishing, canoeing.
