She was the first to commit, and her decision changed the complexion of our program at a very important time.

The decision to take the Toledo Zoo position has been a difficult decision to make and is bittersweet. I am very excited about taking the next steps of my career.

Teamwork is a strategic decision.

I don't think you can ever question the decision that your boss makes. If he would have said 'race' or 'don't race,' that's what I would have done. I race for him. . . . I don't think that anybody can critique the fact that he said don't race. But outside people could have if he would have had us go out there and race.

When it came time to make the decision ... it was obvious.

It wasn't real hard to make a decision. It's been nagging on me for quite some time now and it got to the point where I can't continue on. I have probably been running 60 to 70 percent so it's matter of getting in there and getting some treatment on it and gaining some strength back.
