“I don’t regret it at all,” said Kennison, who ran a personal best of 20.33 in the 200 meters. “I will definitely make an effort to watch the 100, 200, 400 and the relays. I always have.

“I enjoyed every minute of it, when I was part of it. There was the travel and the competition against guys like Carl Lewis and Tim Montgomery. I really enjoyed that.”

Yeah but that was the '96 Olympics wasn't it? It's been a LONG time since he was one of the 2-3 fastest in the league..
