Do You Ever Pray Before You...

Do you ever pray before you compete?

CARL LEWIS: I always do. The one thing I pray for is that everyone will compete well and that no one will get injured. That s the only thing; everything else will take care of itself. As I told Narada a while back, when I compete I don t really concentrate; I just let things flow. Narada said the power of concentration inspired me to come up and meditate here. I have been practising Christianity, but I haven t been able to settle down and get into meditation, relaxation and concentration. That s something I find very interesting. That s one reason I'm glad to be here so I can get a better grasp of these things.
