As a noun, 'decay' is the state of gradual damage or decline in strength, soundness, or prosperity, that is to say, of becoming worse. Similar to the noun 'wreck' that is the state of being damaged, disabled, in ruin or dilapidation.

The main thing which the quote tells you about the sacrifices that elite athletes need to make to be successful is:
