There is a little bit of anger inside me, there's no question about that. I'm really excited to be here. And I can't wait for this race to begin.

I'm not going to kid you ? when you step to the line here, you're going to be a little shaken. And if you ain't, then you're not alive.
again chance excited few left maybe proud
I'm very proud that we were able to come here and excited to think that I still have a lot left in me. And maybe I will give it a chance again in a few years.
accelerate anyone block drive fast fastest giving leave rip todd velocity
I need to rip the sled off the block and accelerate it as fast as possible, giving us the fastest velocity we can going into that first turn. And then I'm going to leave it up to Todd from there. He's going to drive us down the track, in my opinion, better than anyone in the world.

It (the failed drugs test) caused me and my family more pain and heartache than any other incident.

Todd is a great guy. He stood behind me, gave me enough incentive to remain in the sport.
doubt driving entire gone happened keeps leading matter race todd top trying
There's no doubt that Todd is the driving force, that he's the one leading this entire effort. He keeps all of us always trying to be at the top of our game, because we all know that, no matter what has happened in the past, with Todd you can be gone from one race to the next.
Do you know what I'm feeling? I'm an Olympian, and no one can ever take that away from me.

You're teetering on the edge and you hear nothing but the sound of air and the loudest train wreck possible.

I don't know what the deal is, but they're just absolutely flying.

Oh yeah, he'll tell you he's different. But that's still Todd. He's put years and effort and sweat into this.

I felt I had let down my family, my friends, everyone who was rooting for me at that time. It's in my best interest to go out there and try and redeem that.
achievement country greatest incredible olympics race
It's a big disappointment. It's bittersweet. I got to race in the Olympics and that's an incredible achievement for the greatest country in the world. But in the same sense, I don't think I was representing my abilities or my country's abilities to the best.
behind content life people reason returning stuck time
There was a time in my life where I was content with never returning to the sport. These people stuck behind me through everything. That's probably the only reason I made it back.
