“Have to clarify something. I’ve been asked more than once if I will break my world record at the Olympics. I’ve seen all the mentions and posts saying how many of you can’t wait to see me do it again. The same question was raised today in a big press conference here in London. Maybe to the dismay of many I said it’s “unrealistic to think that I will”. Of course the potential is there but I’ve heard the Games is a different beast. International Decathlons are way different than in the states. However,

1. I always try my best which is how I got to where I am now

2. Who said anything about me trying to do something realistic? ”
