5 Quotes by Mike Ireland

I can't put my finger on what's the problem.

To come seventh at the Olympics after a year of sitting on the couch isn't horrible. But I wanted to win.

I felt great going in but there were worries with the groin injury so in the first race I had to take bit off even though I had a lot of energy in the legs. I pushed harder in the second race and still I could have gone quicker but I felt I didn't need to.
