runs
I feel a little sore, tired, like any person that runs fast.
mind target
I don't mind a target on my back,
bring lewis seen since talent trying
I'm not just a 100 m person or a 200 m person. I have a lot more to offer. (People) have not seen that kind of talent since Carl Lewis and Leroy Burrell. I'm trying to bring that back.
believe feeling
I'm feeling great, I can't even be emotional, I can't believe it's happened.
chess gets knew patient playing strong sure throughout tyson wallace
I knew Tyson gets out very fast, and Wallace comes on strong at the end. I had to make sure I was patient throughout the whole race. I was pawning, playing chess with the guys.
call home knew places run time tracks
The first time I was in Icahn Stadium, I knew you could run sub-10 on that track. It's New York, hey. It's where I was born, where I was raised. There's not a lot of tracks I can call home, that have a home feel about them, and I think this can be one of those places for me.
rain winning what-matters
I'm still dominant and that's what matters, ... But rain, snow, sleet, it doesn't matter. I'm going to go out and try and win a gold medal.
champion world want
I ran like a champion. It is a great consolation to show how dominant I am. I am the Olympic champion and the world champion, but I want Justin Gatlin to be the champion of everything,
training had-enough enough
I have had enough rest and enough training,
kings mean gold
Double gold means I'm king of the sprints. It shows I'm the best sprinter around.
believe hard-work people
People mistakenly believe that if you do nothing but train you can only get better. You've got to work hard, but the harder you work the harder you must rest and relax.
sports running want
I don't want to leave the sport saying I could have run faster. I just want to be tapped out, like I gave it my all.
character athletic way
It is simply not consistent with either my character or my confidence in my God-given athletic ability to cheat in any way.
track looks may
I look at myself as the 'Batman' of track -- a vigilante. You may not like me, but I'm needed.
