Zehnkampf / Decathlon Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Zehnkampf / Decathlon:

The decathlon includes ten separate events and they all matter. You can't work on just one of them. Dan O'Brien

There's never going to be a decathlon that you're going to have 10 events that your satisfied with. You're always, always going to be dissatisfied in something, and that always draws you back to try to retry that the next time you do a decathlon. It's like you go for the perfect 10.

Ashton Eaton

The thing I like about decathlon is also the thing I dislike: It's the maximum challenge, but also the maximum frustration.

Ashton Eaton

And there is such a thing as a decathlon high. It's like a rock rolling down hill, picking up momentum. You get better and better.

Dan O'Brien

When I lost my decathlon world record I took it like a man. I only cried for ten hours.

Daley Thompson

Most people doing the decathlon these days are quite boring, so people don't relate to them.

If I were to compare the Olympic decathlon to fatherhood, I would say fatherhood is a lot tougher.

Caitlyn Jenner

I don't think anyone chooses the decathlon as much as it chooses you.

Bryan Clay

The whole decathlon is ridiculous, but the 1,500 meters is insanity.

Rafer Johnson

I'm competitive. I like to compete, and that's basically what the decathlon lets me do.

Bryan Clay

If you're going to dedicate every second to winning the decathlon, what are you doing wasting your time in bed?

Caitlyn Jenner

I didn't even know what it was when I started. But I was lucky. I found it at 16. Most people don't discover decathlon until they're 21 or 22.

Daley Thompson

The great thing about this is, and not to pump my own tires, but I feel like I'm not maximized yet. I feel like I can still run faster, jump higher, which I think makes it special. Hopefully, going to London, I'll be welcomed into the decathlon community.

The decathlon includes ten separate events and they all matter. You can't work on just one of them.

Dan O'Brien

To me, the decathlon is its own little society and I am part of that culture.

Dan O'Brien

It took me time to realize that the men who won Olympic gold medals in the decathlon are just men, just like me.

Dan O'Brien

I could be winning the decathlon in high school, which I've won twice, yet, if my dad is in the audience, 'Oh look! It's Anthony Quinn.' And I'm like, 'Hello? Kid just got a gold medal. Hello? I'm over here.'

Francesco Quinn

The decathlon takes so long to learn that people who are good athletes don't want to go back to the beginning again.

Daley Thompson

Before the decathlon I'm constantly trying to convince myself that I want to do this, that I want to take myself to that place where it's going to hurt and things are going to be tough. But that's like anything - you want to give your best.

Bryan Clay

I would like to have a decathlon where all of my throws are really consistent and set the tone. That I'm good all-around, not just a speed and jump guy.
