I believed that Bryan (Clay, the US 2005 World Championship decathlon winner) would be the winner in Moscow but that I would at least fight for one of the remaining two medals. |
I did not need glucose to win the silver. |
I wanted to wait until the birth and only then make the decision. I came after a hectic week, with not enough time to rest. But I must admit I expected a higher score. But a win is a win and I have enough time left to prepare well for Moscow. |
It (the doping scandal) is a tragedy for me. It makes me want to cry. I am seriously considering putting an end to this year's season. ... I don't feel like training, much less competing. |
We didn't do anything that wasn't in the rules. The doctor was responsible for the decision to give us the glucose during the very tough competition in bad weather. I feel sorry and embarrassed. |
