You got to attack every practice.

I have that mindset going into anything I do, there's always room to improve, you can always do better.

There's always stuff you can improve on. Even when you do something right you can always try to go out and do something better and improve.

I don't know anybody that is like super close friends but also competing for the same medal. That would be kinda odd.

I love running in Britain. It has always been good for me.

My message to fans... I'm running clean.

I want to leave my own legacy, make my own trail.

I won't say I'm the new Usain Bolt, I'm the new Christian Coleman.

Even at recess, in elementary school, it was just a known thing that I was one of the fastest in the school.

I just keep doing me and representing the sport the right way.

A lot of people, when they are expected to do great things they fold, but you have got to find a way to navigate it.

Coming into the offseason, when I'm training, when things get hard, I know there's guys that are across the country, training and trying to be the best in the country and trying to be the best in the world. So that just motivates me to just keep going and keep working.

A lot of people don't realise how competitive college sprinting is.

Me being a shorter guy, I am pretty quick out of the blocks and can get up to top speed maybe a little faster than some guys.

That's always my mentality. There's always room for improvement.

You got to attack every workout.

The thing you're working so hard for are milliseconds. Saving a 10th of a second from 9.82 to 9.72 is huge. There are a lot of things I can fix from my technique standpoint and making sure I hold my form at the end of the race, to not slow down as much as I usually do.

I don't want to be anybody else. I want to be the best version of Christian Coleman that I can.

When you set a time and you hit that time, you are kind of satisfied. I never want to have that type of feeling.

There are so many guys that they are talking about that may be the 'next one' or may be the next Bolt. That whole conversation is exciting to me and really humbling.
