The 800m is the best race there is!!!According to me and its no joke, and you have to be fast, and I love that race. Nick Symmonds is the greatest right now for winning the 2008 Olympic time trial. If someone knows a place I can order a t-shirt with his name on it shoot me an e-mail at .

Symmonds is the man. I really hope that he will make the finals and come home with the gold. I truly believe he has a great shot at the gold.

Good luck Nick!

Symmonds is BA!

Why do you people talk trash about Track & Field athletes? Very few (if any) make huge amounts money, are on Sportscenter, and all the lights and glamour that other athletes live. Cut them some slack, he's an elite runner (globally) and has a great chance and at doing some damage in China

Boise!!!!!!!!!
Drayne posted July 8 at 8:27pm.
Yes Anonymous Coward, plenty of people have been talking trash about Symmonds. If you read the posts following his interviews and races there are always people who seem to find some negative. After this interview it's clear Symmonds is a credit to the sport and very deserving of his success.

Cool guy, he's gonna win it.
Tyler Mulder posted July 6 at 5:20pm.

Anonymous Coward posted July 3 at 8:14pm.
no one said they didnt wish the best for him drayne.
Drayne posted July 3 at 6:52pm.
How can anybody not wish the best for this guy. He's smart, funny, confident, amazingly talented and he seems like a regular guy. It's great to see all these great personalities shine through in the interviews. They do our sport proud. Kudos once again to Mark and Flotrack. Great interview!

BG posted July 3 at 11:49am.
Nothing like a good caucasian (white Russian), good enough for the Dude, it's good enough for Symmonds.
Derek Rubis posted July 3 at 10:25am.

General posted July 3 at 7:52am.

Don't think you have four more years. Win the gold.

Mark I have to saw I love these uncut interviews with the Olympians. Keep up the good work and keep the interviews coming.

NS personifies the alpha-confident male. Clearly a huge part of success is his inner confidence and strength. Great interview Mark!
