A mountaintop finish would have helped the situation. I was real surprised that (many finishes) came down to a field sprint. ... Although those kinds of races are exciting, a mountaintop finish is probably needed.

They did not specify that I had to run the race from the beginning, ... about a block and a half from the finish - and I entered it immediately behind the fellow who was leading the race. He looked over his shoulder and there I was, fresh as a daisy. This poor man put on a desperate sprint, which is quite a feat if you've run 26 miles, and he managed to cross the finish line before I did, which gives you some sense of my speed.

Leon Van Bon led me out perfectly, but I started the sprint too early, couldn't finish it. Although I was going for a stage win, the intermediate bonus sprint and the green jersey gives me a lot of self confidence.

Retailers know that the holiday season is not a sprint, it's a marathon, ... Black Friday weekend is just the beginning of a month-long race to the finish line.

When we're in an emergency situation, such as we were, retailers have the obligation not to increase their prices to the general public over what wholesalers are charging them. In an emergency situation, they shouldn't take advantage of that situation in order to increase their margins.

This is the time of year you wait for, and we're right there. Guys who have never been in the playoffs before will feel that pressure. We're approaching the finish line of an 82-game season.

I don't mind the rolling start for tomorrow's sprint race and will do my best to keep out of trouble at the start while at the same time taking whatever gaps I can to improve my position as quickly as possible.

It's important for people to know what to expect, but any situation you go into is not going to be the perfect environment. The line between soldier and emergency worker is blurred because they all could respond to a national crisis.

You have to finish the job. That is how you win. There is a real fine line between winning and losing and it is just about execution. Whether it is offensive execution or defensive execution or making a pitch in a key situation, that is the key to success. Young teams need to figure that out so they know what to put their focus on when the situation arises.

Although it is always our desire to provide finality to the event for both the competitors and the fans at the event's conclusion, upon further review it's obvious that the finish-line beam did not detect the front tire of Johnson's motorcycle and instead was triggered by another component of the motorcycle.

Therefore, we are reversing the original decision and declaring Steve Johnson the winner of the event.
