Zitat des Tages über Leichtathletik / Track And Field:

I started track and field when I was 12 and didn't get to an Olympic Games until I was nearly 23. By any stretch of the imagination that's a very long apprenticeship. Sebastian Coe

I started track and field when I was 12 and didn't get to an Olympic Games until I was nearly 23. By any stretch of the imagination that's a very long apprenticeship.

Sebastian Coe

Competing in both track and field and basketball for the Bruins I have a lot of great memories to choose from. But my all-time favorite moment in collegiate sports has to be in 1982 when we won UCLA's first NCAA title in track.

Jackie Joyner-Kersee

Many track and field people know that if I stay relaxed and run my race like I'm supposed to, I will be the winner at the Olympic Games.

Asafa Powell

I love track and field, but I also know the day will come when I will have to do something else.

Jackie Joyner-Kersee

Track and field is the best way to reach out for kids. It doesn't matter how fast you are. You always want to beat someone.

Carl Lewis

I always liked my teachers, and I was in a lot of after-school projects. I was a Girl Scout until my senior year, when I couldn't be a Girl Scout anymore. I was in clubs like Junior Achievement, and I ran track and field. My grades were good, but then toward 11th grade they were nothing. I always went to summer school.

Amy Sedaris

I wouldn't mind being a track and field coach.

Ron Rash

In high school, I did a little track and field and ran on my own. In college, I would run every now and again, but I didn't have enough time to be devoted to it.

Natalie Morales

It's very warm there, so we were outdoors all the time. The local people had programs for us year-round, where as kids we had the opportunity to play football, basketball, baseball, track and field - we just went from one sport to the next, year-round.

Rafer Johnson

I began with track and field because this is what I know.

Sergei Bubka

You'd like more people to recognise what you do is special. But I take the attitude that the best thing I can do for my sport is to be the best at it. The best way people will come to recognise that track and field is a great sport is to see athletes excelling at it. Which is what I intend to do.

Maurice Greene

In America, we have three major sports - baseball, football and basketball. They get the most coverage. Then there's things like golf which mop up most of what is left. But track and field? We are way at the bottom of the totem pole.

Maurice Greene

It was not until the end of my freshman year in high school that I thought I could really have a future in track and field. I definitely did not think I could make it to the Olympics back then, though; I was just focused on making it to the state finals!

Allyson Felix

When I tell people I'm going to the Olympics, they're like: 'What do you do, track and field? Pole vault? Are you a volleyball player?' No one ever guesses tae kwon do.

Diana Lopez

At the end of the day, if you're a professional athlete in track and field you are the CEO of your company.

Carl Lewis

In the television era, the second week of the Olympics is reserved for what is considered the marquee event: track and field.

Frank Deford

I love watching track and field - the 4x100 relay, the 100-(meter) dash, the 200-(meter) dash. To see what they're able to do, I love watching that.

LeBron James

I went to Moorehouse College. There was no track and field there.

Edwin Moses

I actually like indoor track and field more than outdoor.

Ashton Eaton

I do the whole 10-event thing, but at the end of the day, it's still track and field.

Ashton Eaton

All our lives are enriched by the leadership and excellence and confidence of female athletes, whether the Mia Hamms and Maya Moores we know or the field hockey, lacrosse and track and field athletes we do not necessarily know.

George Vecsey

I dabbled in football myself until the age of 14, but I didn't have as much love for the sport as I did track and field. I would never have been good enough to take it to the highest level.

Greg Rutherford

Track and field was very big when I was growing up.

Usain Bolt

I boxed. I did track and field; I did basketball, football, any sport I was able to sign up for.

Eddie Alvarez

You see somebody on a football field make a great, athletic 70-yard run, but the athleticism is immeasurable. It's undoubtedly athletic, but compared to somebody else who did something else, how do you compare it? That's the great part of track and field. It's a test, but with results that you can compare to others.

Ashton Eaton

I grew up an athlete. Track and field and dance. In track, I actually went to the Junior Olympics. I've always been very athletic.
