There's never going to be a decathlon that you're going to have 10 events that your satisfied with. You're always, always going to be dissatisfied in something, and that always draws you back to try to retry that the next time you do a decathlon. It's like you go for the perfect 10.
Sometimes you have to resist working on your strengths in favour of your weaknesses. The decathlon requires a wide range of skills.
The whole decathlon is ridiculous, but the 1,500 meters is insanity.
The decathlon includes ten separate events and they all matter. You can't work on just one of them.
It took me time to realize that the men who won Olympic gold medals in the decathlon are just men, just like me.
The decathlon takes so long to learn that people who are good athletes don't want to go back to the beginning again.
The thing I like about decathlon is also the thing I dislike: It's the maximum challenge, but also the maximum frustration.
Most people doing the decathlon these days are quite boring, so people don't relate to them.
I'm competitive. I like to compete, and that's basically what the decathlon lets me do.
And there is such a thing as a decathlon high. It's like a rock rolling down hill, picking up momentum. You get better and better.
