Edwin Moses

I always got my work done before playing.

My concentration level blocks out everything. Concentration is why some athletes are better than others. You develop that concentration in training and concentrate in a meet.

I was always a mean and lean athlete - not tall - not large.

I overcame size with mechanics.

I wanted to go to medical school. But, I never got a college scholarship.

Going back to the '70s and '80s I was one of the athletes who believed in true sport. I never took medical supplements, believed in diet and exercising. I always represent clean athletes.

When I first started running there were no computers. There was no such thing as a laptop.
