Some this yeah that's where -- throw BP and I was sitting that's right up like the most the most outstanding and first year thinking. There's no whether -- and it's one that's very cool off a loss.

Said anything I mean what's the family and at the fiance here and yet what what do they say about hiring slowed the first thing I got it. This morning -- from greens -- -- You feel like you know world trade sat and act like the world's powers that right now. And I actually. It's you know it's like we're going and keep having this statements you're -- -- -- I still don't believe is. Coming off the record into an incoming here and you in this and just like. Try to did the fog and clear. Very go have you have you had has had its that in at all and you didn't you you realize that it dollars it does that still do it your dream. It's like it's almost like -- dream but I'm trying to either but he's accurate with you know. You're like with Brian in your -- -- back to know there were all part right now is thinking.

Well I'm so happy for you and you know I got to watch which was which is really cool it was really fun to watch you -- everybody. Go out there and do it and I have to say you guys did a phenomenal job but but I can't let you go without asking you took a quick question because. I know I caught a lot of flack for this when I when I want my gold. It was for not running the fifteen react as fast as everybody -- think I have to run for fifty. To go after the same Olympic record that you -- they last. I and I and I couldn't right here and a break five or six I don't you have -- -- for 29 -- to get through underground -- really they're running fourth at the difference. Not -- different equipment similar but I'm. What was going through your head at the one thing that I always told everybody was. If I if you don't know what it's like to have to run 15100 analyst you've been there yet so -- been there I would like I wanna hear you put it into words for everybody that's watching with. Actually there is a big difference like there's that it huge respect for which he did because actor. You know how most of the Kaplan is like definitely physically. Training but the mental thing teaching and you key to the line -- fifteen or being happy. Yeah you're like believe that you don't care about records or anything there's like. Get this thing -- -- go out you can be your best effort but at the same time just like. Have the gold like to you that this be over him or anything so that's. It it's it's tough to Muster the street -- you definitely can get to run under run. For the gold it is totally different right yeah no I I totally did. We were talking about. Support groups and I know that. You you your mom was here and she I Scott this year earlier in the week to secure a Gaby this monster hugged him anyway. -- that. It was a little bit awkward because I was like wait a second I'm competing if that bone no no no I'm not compete anywhere so it was actually really good and it was great talking -- Would it mean to have your mom and stands. -- the rest of your family and your -- there and I got to see you talking to them down there at the railing yeah I mean it was a really special moment but can you let us into what that was like. It was actually special -- it's like so much different and calling them on the phone and having him watch it or something thing I got the -- this definitely. They were there that can experience all the emotions and he went through the ups and downs with me in the best thing was going to that victory lap and actually being physically hug it and have been night. You feel the -- -- few tears and it just be able to actually see their faces what what did you run -- you. Idea she was crying it was a thing and I would -- I just hugged her in in career -- like Olympic gold in this moment finally did she says. I know and I don't know this is really trying to she just kept saying I'm so proud of him so. That's awesome. It so this is pretty fresh and and I know that you probably haven't had much time to think about the future there we've talked about this a numerous times in. Everybody in in the US it gets involved with track and field knows anything about the -- in your remarks is probably talking about as well. What's next we. You've got the world record he got the gold medal now. Do we do we go after another Olympic Medal do we stay with the decathlon I personally think -- meter hurdles but that's just my own personal opinion what what what you think it. I mean there's been talk of Winter Olympics. Ego shots that maybe that out early I'll come to blogs that you needed this and although. That we can travel to -- and what's there. -- -- all we can be like -- seriously could be the next three time gold I mean we're not the tallest guys in the world no but we get again. Yet where -- athletes in the world he. -- We agree we will get instant. Everybody wants pseudo organ next year. Or a football they are they particularly your ruled. -- thought that such a rhetorical but we gonna take it there any is there actually out. Our before we go I've heard a lot of suites and things about actions faces when he you know Jones 530 in the ball to and he -- all -- -- -- -- -- can you give -- your best I just -- -- -- decades. Into the gold at a camera for a okay and -- Muster. Awesome thanks so much for coming -- really appreciated -- by the way.
