I really liked it best when I was a nobody.

One thing is having skated five of the best races I've probably could have skated. It was nice to peak at the right time and to do it in an important time in somebody's career.

You don't really want to load up a whole lot, probably anything more than four hours before the race. I needed something to make me feel full, but I certainly didn't want it to make me feel stuffed.

I mean you got to thank your parents for giving you the right genes.

We never did a lot of weights, but a lot of repetitions. The most I would use doing squats was 300 pounds.

I'm not a big fan of those who are egotistical and so outspoken.
