Andrew Rock Quotations

My immediate goals are to do well at the U.S. Championships and compete well in Europe this summer. I am aiming for consistency and small improvements for this year. There are no major championships this year (i.e. Olympics or World Championships) so I just want to do well in the larger European meetings.

I am just building off what I did last year. I am trying to improve little by little. I am doing similar stuff to what I did a year ago, just trying to build on what I did the year before. My nutrition is as always, I am focused heavily on that because I think it really makes a difference.

If I really thought about it, in a way it's depressing. To work thousands of hours for three-tenths of a second. But in track terms, it's an eternity ... all the hard work pays off. In Finland, (winning a silver medal at the 2004 World Outdoor Championships) made it all worthwhile.

There are so many meets between now and Beijing. I have a lot I want to accomplish this year.
