They better use a different one than they used in (training), I'll tell you that.
country pumping sweep
It is pumping up our country to try to sweep this thing. It can happen.
both feet pushing work
They swore it wasn't going to work on the ice. You're actually pushing with both feet going in the same direction.
feeling good
This is not about yourself. It wasn't a good feeling for me after the 1,000 meters.
gearing
This isn't important for me. This is just gearing me up for the big show.
motivates playing soon
Something like this isn't what motivates me. As soon as I get on the ice, it's business. I'm not out here playing around.
eric
Speculation of doing what Eric did, I would like to downplay that a little bit.
coming confident great races
Now I'm just really confident that the other races coming up are going to be just as good. It's a great start.
bad beat people racing worried
I think we wanted to beat each other so bad that we weren't worried about the other 40 people out there. It's not about racing people. It's about racing the clock.
eric media people record specific tough
I think the media has thought a lot more about the Heiden record than I have. Eric has said that it's tough to do what he did in 1980 because people are specializing in specific events.
boils relationship respect
I respect him as an athlete. That's what our relationship boils down to.
best country create knows outlook positive practicing pursuit represent respect talent team trying usa vibe whether
I respect the talent that he has. Whether he and I have the same outlook on things is different. Who knows what's right or wrong? I'm here as part of Team USA and that's what I'm going to do, whether it's the team pursuit or practicing with everybody. I'm trying to create positive vibe so we can come out and represent out country the best we can.
focus helps stay
I think it really helps to stay away from that and really focus on what you are here for.
hockey ice speed watched
I watched the ice hockey and never even glanced at the speed skating.
