I’ve also been spending a lot of time with my nephews, my younger sister Nee Nee’s sons. Antwon, who’s a year-a-half old, and Kwamé, who’s just a month old.

More quotes by LaShawn Merritt

When I was running in High School, it was like an out-of-body experience. It was like both of us were running.

Physically I’m about the same as last year, but mentally I’m a lot stronger. I feel like I haven’t lost anything. And that I can pick up where I left off.

In the future, I think I'll try to work my race plan a bit more. I'm still young, I still have a couple of years to prove myself. In the next years, I'll focus on getting the gold.

It’s a way for me to give back to the community that supported me. We’ll have scholarships available, and we’ll help out in other ways that in turn will help local athletes get more exposure.

After the season, I pretty much just relaxed, just enjoyed myself. I had a great season, so enjoyed my six weeks off.
