Chad Hedrick Medal Quotations

The five medals isn't a big thing. The most important thing for me right now is to go out and have fun. Things could be a lot worse right now.

It's better it happened now than at the Olympics, which we train for our whole lives. You can say I got three medals at the Olympics, but it's been a really tough year for me and this just tops it off.

I've got a 10K to worry about. He's got two medals in his pocket so he's done great. He's competed at an awesome level and I hope to go and finish it for our team.

I'm very happy with my accomplishments. But at the same time, I feel like I left a lot of medals out there. I didn't skate perfect. I let myself down a few times, but I have to hold my head high.

We have a lot of common, in here, in the heart. He was a fighter just like me. You don't win five gold medals without heart. It's hard to race all those different distances.

I felt I left a lot of medals out there.
