major athletes all there at one time. They're all watching each other
and pushing each other all the time. Some of them are earning lots of
money, but they're living in camps with no electricity, no water, that
are horrible, dirty, awful. I remember saying to one of them 'Why are
you staying here? This is a pretty awful place.' He said: 'See that
beautiful house up there on the mountain? That's my house. If I live
there I'll become fat. Here, I'm sharing a room with a 17-year-old who
wants to kick my backside. I'm not going to let him do that.'"

success in sports is not linked to genetics, but rather other
environmental/living factors.
