Every single race that I get on the podium in biathlon, I'm shocked.
I've actually medalled in every single swimming meet except for the Olympics, so that's the goal. I want to get on that podium - I really do. But for me, that's not something I can control... so I will be happy with going out there and swimming a race that I'm proud of.
I never think about records. I focus on my race and try to get onto the podium consistently. It's hard enough to do that.
Every single day I'm shocked.
I race six events. I specialise in butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and freestyle, and it's not impossible, but it is hard to be able to race every single race, and day after day as well.
Every single day, I'm shocked at what I've been given the opportunity to do.
I was skiing fast in training, but that really doesn't count for anything until you actually do it in a race. So to finally get to prove how fast you are skiing is an added bonus that goes along with winning the first race of the year. Any race win is a good win. I don't really care where it is. I've been on the podium a bunch of times here, but it's always good for your confidence to start off the year with a victory.
I'm the same guy at that podium preaching to the people on every single song. I'm not doing a dance for you on another song. It's all a direct assault.
I can be proud of every swim, every effort I put in the water, every mental approach to every single race.
Every creator has to follow what they believe. That's the message I would love for every single executive to get, to clearly understand, and every single producer out there.
Any race, I'm always going for the top step on the podium.
I had a lot of time to think, and that is not good for your mind. And when it actually happened, it was not so much a celebration but the relief. It was an exorcism anxiety. After each race there is a procedure in which you get taken off to the podium and the TV interviews.
I'm not pretending I can give advice to every single person or every single couple for every situation; I'm making the point that we are not going to get to equality in the workforce before we get to equality in the home. Not going to happen.
I get shocked by people smoking cigarettes sometimes. i get shocked by watching talk shows. people's moralities are so far below what i would consider standard.
That's what the game is supposed to be about: always wanting to get better, be the best you can be. I hold myself to that every single summer, every single year.
I've been shocked for a long time in a lot of circumstances. I get shocked when they say, 'Hey, we're paying ya.'
Do not make the writer stand behind a podium. Anything but. A podium reeks of the lecture hall. A music stand, on the other hand, is nicely minimal and lends the writer - who usually needs all the help s/he can get - a musician's second-hand cool-factor.
