We never did a lot of weights, but a lot of repetitions. The most I would use doing squats was 300 pounds.

It's not a sport you get famous at. If I wanted to be famous, I would have stuck with hockey.

You got to get lucky because it lasts for a week and a lot of things can happen in a week.

I'd rather get a nice warmup suit. That's something I can use. Gold medals just sit there. When I get old, maybe I could sell them if I need the money.

I would recommend anybody who gets a chance to see short track skating, make it a point to go out there when Apolo is skating because you won't see anybody better.

You don't really want to load up a whole lot, probably anything more than four hours before the race. I needed something to make me feel full, but I certainly didn't want it to make me feel stuffed.
