I am just so happy that it is all over, it is such a relief to be finished racing.

I never say anything is impossible. But I am just focusing on reaffirming what I did at the Commonwealth Games. I am here to learn from all of my races and see what I can do after such a big program at the Commonwealth Games. I haven't had a chance to come down from my achievements.

I probably came into this a bit more nervous than I thought I would. I put a lot of pressure on myself to do something a bit special. But I'm happy to be on the team for the Commonwealth Games now.

I would have liked to have spent a little bit more time in bed this morning. I'm a little bit sore. The 200 (relay) probably hurt substantially more than I ever thought it could. I am definitely going to have a massage now.
|
I've broken world records before and it's still exciting and amazing but I'm more down to earth about it now.
|
If I'm put in that position, I'll be happy. But I've had some experience with having great results and then having to back it up the next day, and not doing so well as I would have liked.

It should be some real good racing tonight. Alice and Jodie are both swimming better than they were at trials and I feel better than I was at trials at the same time, there will be some very good racing tonight and tomorrow night.
|
It was probably one of the scariest finals that I ever had to swim in because I've had my toughest competition here. I've really struggled in the past racing Jodie and Alice. That's the one thing I wanted to change in this race.
|
It's a pretty tough program. You don't know how you will handle it until you do it. Other than that, I'm really happy with how I did tonight. Tonight was all about making the final, I'm sure all the Australian girls were the same.
|
It's a relief to get it over and done with, especially in such style.
|
It's been such a special week for me but I wouldn't have got three of those gold medals if it weren't for the girls I get to swim with in the relays.
|
It's been very hard to sustain my intensity but that was a good time in a good field so to win was great.
|
It's kind of embarrassing - Alice told me before the race that I was the oldest in the race.
|
It's my first individual medal in the event so I'm just so excited.
|
It's so exciting to win, it's something that I've been working towards for quite a few years now, coming second to Jodie quite often, so to get a national championship in that event is very exciting for me.
