All of us are pushing the envelope. All of us are going to go for gold or get nothing. Mediocrity is not going to cut it.

For those of us who have been through big injuries and come back from them, this is an amazing moment. Even up there training with the weather, we were having fun for sure.

You are sitting on a gold mine and not doing anything. Then there is no point in blaming us for taking patents for spices.

Regardless, we knew she'd want us to come back to Europe and go for the gold. While it was shocking when it happened, at the same time we knew what we had to do.

Nobody asked us how we'd like to receive (their gold medals). It sure wouldn't have been the way it was done. But you quickly realize the athletes have no say in what happens at the Olympics except for your performance. After that, you lose control.

It's been such an unusual thing for us to have three gold, it's great.
