00:00:09.840 - 00:00:23.160

well in a way sometimes when you see uh, you know, maybe a Muhammad ali go out and earn $5 million in one year. And, and maybe box twice. And that way you can see the differences because I trained 6 to 7 hours a day, 365 days

00:00:23.160 - 00:00:35.270

out of the year all year round. So I do see other people getting the financial rewards. But I guess really what I see, I'm very pleased with what I've done in the past and I wouldn't have it any other way. Even though they aren't the financial

00:00:35.270 - 00:00:45.660

rewards there, I got so much satisfaction out of the last few years. And especially like the world record, I don't care if they put a million dollars on making the world's record. It wouldn't have meant any more to me than it did when I got it

00:00:46.120 - 00:00:58.830

been some great names in the past, like Rafer, johnson and Matthias and to me and next year at the olympics coming up, it could be Bruce general. How about next year for the olympics? Well, it's 11 months from right now. Um, the chances I have just

00:00:58.830 - 00:01:08.920

as good a chance as anybody and probably better than most to win it. There's a lot of pressure put on the athletes, not only just to do well in the olympic games, but to make it on the team, We have the way our system is set

00:01:08.920 - 00:01:20.340

up as an olympic trials meet where you have the top three guys from that meat go, no matter what your performances were in the past, you could hit your toe on the hurdle and fall down and not go. So the chances of making on the team

00:01:20.340 - 00:01:32.570

you have to be on. But hopefully with the proper conditioning and you're ready for it and a lot of seasoned athletes will be there high school and that was my big sport. That's the one I was going to go out for football. And in fact, I

00:01:32.570 - 00:01:41.020

went to Graceland for football. And uh, I, once I had been there for a while, I decided that after I got my knee hit and I had other sports like water skiing and track.
