I was playing cricket first and my cricket coach was the one that introduced me to track and field.
- Usain Bolt
Track and field was very big when I was growing up.
- Usain Bolt
I began with track and field because this is what I know.
- Sergei Bubka
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
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
I love watching gymnastics, swimming, and track and field.
- Mia Hamm
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
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
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
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
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
I went to Moorehouse College. There was no track and field there.
- Edwin Moses
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.
