Decathletes at the Olympics share their views on Bryan Clay, the Castle High School graduate who won the decathlon title.
Roman Sebrle, Czech Republic, 2004 Olympic decathlete gold medalist, sixth in Beijing
"Bryan Clay is king now, and I was before. It was just about me giving him the crown for the next four years."
Mikk Pahapill, Estonia, 11th in Beijing
"He never panics, he goes out there, and knows exactly what he has to do in every event; some guys make one mistake and they blow up, not Bryan."
Daniel Awde, Great Britain, 21st in Beijing
"I'm a young guy, only 20 and this is my first Olympics. I've got years to go, and maybe some day I can get a little closer to Bryan. I'm proud to be in the same event he's in."
