Hello, I'm
Anton Fornieles and this is sports live. Last Friday the Olympic Games
finished and today we are lucky to have here two of the champions of
this London Olympics Games 2012: Usain bolt and Michael Phelps.
Anton: Hi, how are you guys?
Bolt (Pablo): I’m fine and so happy Anton.
Phelps (Roger): I’m fine too, thanks.
Anton: Ok now we will start a little interview about their life and sport career.
Anton: How did you feel when you beat your own world record?
Phelps (Roger): I felt a lot of euphoria and satisfaction also I couldn't beat the record without my partners Aaron Peirsol, Eric Shanteau and David Walters as the record was in a relay race.
Bolt
(Pablo): I felt happiness for my country and for all the people that
was cheering me. When I beat three records in Pekin the 100m, the 200m
and the relay race thanks to my Jamaica athletics team partners Nesta Carter, Michael Frater, y Asafa Powell you know.
Anton: Which Olympic Games have been most important in your life Pekin or London?
Bolt: Of course
the Pekin Olympic Games was the sport competition of my life with the
world records the people saying my name after that I will become a
famous person.
Phelps: I’m with you Bolt the Olympic Games of Pekin changed my life with the 8 gold medals and the more other things.
Anton: What’s the typical food in your country?
Phelps: My
country, the USA, is famous for the fast food but in last years the
Mediterranean diet is integrating into our society.
Bolt: Ermmm… In
my country it’s so difficult to find a typical food because our food
is: a big part from England colonization, another part from native
recipes and the other part from Africa rastafarian food.
Anton: What do you eat in a day?
Phelps: I eat a
lot of fast food because that I consume an average of 8000 calories in a
day. After that I swim and burnt all the calories.
Bolt: I love the native food like the ñame or the batata two tubers with a lot of energy for me.
Anton: Bolt, when did you begin to run?
Bolt: Well, I
began to run with ten or eleven years but a good moment of my start is
when I was twelve I was the fastest boy of my school.
Anton: And you Phelps when did you begin to swim?
Phelps: I start to swim younger than Bolt began to run. I start at seven years old in my school.
Anton: I don’t practice sport but I think that I’m in very good form.
Bolt and Phelps: Hahahahaha
Anton: What do you want to do when you retire?
Phelps: Sorry Anton, can you repeat the question please?
Anton: Yes, of course I said what do you want to do when you retire?
Phelps: I want to have more time for my family and I want to be a coach of swimming promises.
Bolt: Also I’ll want more time for my family like Phelps but I’ll like to help the poor people of my country too.
Anton: How is your relationship with your selection partners like Blake Powell or Lochte?
Bolt:
It’s very good because we know since we were kids also sometimes we
went out with our girlfriends to dance reggae or to have dinner in a
restaurant.
Phelps: In the
sport life we are good partners and have a very good relationship but in
our private life we hardly ever see each other because everyone lives
in a different part of the USA.
Anton: When are young did you practice a different kind of spot?
Phelps: No I
didn’t because my elder sisters and I practice the swimming and I since I
was a child I want to practice the swimming them. And these decision in
my life produced very good results.
Bolt: I say yes when I was a young boy I played cricket and football in Kingston with my brother and his friends.
Anton: What kind of music do you like?
Bolt: It is
possible that you think that is the typical but my favourite music It’s
the reggae I love Bob Marley and the other Jamaican singers, it is a
relaxing music and It’s very good for concentration before a race.
Phelps: I
sometimes listen reggae but my favourite type of music is the dance or
electronic music cause that music It’s good for dance and motivate
myself too.
Anton: What do you want to do on holidays after the Olympic Games?
Phelps: aaaah… On these holidays I’d like to go to a distant country with my family to relax myself.
Bolt: After the Olympic Games I‘ll have to train a lot because in September I’ll run the Diamond League and I want to win.
Anton: Finally, Bolt, what do you think about Phelps?
Bolt: He’s a
beast in the water he is like a shark very fast and determined in his
actions. Also he is a very good person and for me is the best sportsman
of the history.
Anton: And you Phelps what do you about Usain?
Phelps: He’s
like a bullet I don’t see him when he is running is too faster for the
human eye. I don’t know if in this Olympic Games I can see him.
Bolt, Anton and Phelps: jajajajaja
Anton:Thank you boys, the program finishes now but remember that tomorrow we want to talk to Lewis Hamilton. Good night England.
