Bode Miller

In some ways, that's the story of my season - when I wasn't making big mistakes, I was winning races and being on the podium. And when I made mistakes I was still fourth or fifth, just off the podium. ↗

It does matter that it's the Olympics. I just did it my way. I'm not a martyr, and I'm not a do-gooder. I just want to go out and rock. And man, I rocked here. ↗

It's nice, being brought up with no money at all. It's just not how I measure success, so that makes it a bunch easier. ↗

It's not quite as important who you beat as that you end up on top. ↗

My goal is the same as every year - to not hurt myself. ↗

My grandfather was very into horse racing, and I found some of his old journals and got into it from there. It has a lot of parallels to skiing. It's a fun lifestyle, being around the racetrack. ↗

Obviously, you always want to win, but you want to win by skiing a race that you're proud of and you feel like you really challenged yourself and left it all out there. ↗

Once the season starts for me, there isn't a change in my focus, just a change in my tactics and strategies. ↗
