American - Athlete
Born: February 10, 1982

I want to be one of the greatest athletes ever to live, not only in track and field, but in all of general sport.

Usain Bolt

When you see most companies get big, they want to shout about all they've done. But the consumer wants to know: 'What have you done for me lately?'

Kevin Plank

I love the sport of track and field. If I can be the person to make it a big thing in this country, that would be amazing.

Mary Cain

You'd like more people to recognise what you do is special. But I take the attitude that the best thing I can do for my sport is to be the best at it. The best way people will come to recognise that track and field is a great sport is to see athletes excelling at it.

Maurice Greene

Once I found out that track and field was an organized sport, the era I followed more closely was that of Maurice Greene and Michael Johnson.

Justin Gatlin

It's always about 'what have you done for me lately.' As players we see what is going on.

Malik Jackson

I boxed. I did track and field; I did basketball, football, any sport I was able to sign up for.

Eddie Alvarez

I knew there was no money in track and field unless you were unbelievable. So I stopped it when I was 13. I just really wanted to focus on soccer and with soccer training and high school, it would have been too much if I did track and field as well.

DeAndre Yedlin

What track needs to figure out: how to engage us between the races. Instead, the entire off-the-track conversation is about doping. This is how you kill a sport.

Malcolm Gladwell

Growing up in the sport, I've been able to separate what happens on the track with what happens away from the track. That track is totally different. I'm not the same person when I put that helmet one.

Trevor Bayne

In track years... track is not like other sports. You do have track athletes that stay in this sport until, like, 35, 36, but I think when you get to 28, it's really difficult.

Usain Bolt

I dabbled in football myself until the age of 14, but I didn't have as much love for the sport as I did track and field. I would never have been good enough to take it to the highest level.

Greg Rutherford

I mean, if you pause over what it means at the age of 76 that Eleanor Roosevelt wrote, the happiest single day of her life was the day she made the first team at field hockey. Field hockey is a team sport. Field hockey is a knockabout - I mean, picture Allenswood, the swamps of north London. It's a messy sport. So she really enjoyed playing this rough-and-tumble sport in the mud of Allenswood, a team sport. And she was very competitive. And she loved being competitive, and she loved to win. And that, I think, was all of the things that Allenswood enabled.

Blanche Wiesen Cook

I didn't get a ton of interest from colleges in baseball and football, but I was outstanding in track and had the sense that this would be my meal ticket... Track was a sport where I saw immediate improvement, and I had a lot of good support behind me... and the coaches had a lot of experience and pushed me in that direction for sure.

Dan O'Brien

Nothing against the Olympics. I played in 2012 and it was an incredible experience. It's different for tennis players than for swimmers and track and field athletes. That's the pinnacle of their sport and not so much the pinnacle of tennis.

John Isner
