A lot of us females think if you are really lean you are going to run really fast but it is not really about that -- it is if you are really strong you are going to run really fast. If you are too skinny you haven't got any bulk so it is quite a fine line. |
As long as I do the talking with my feet and not anything else, I can rebuild myself. |
I am probably in the best shape I've ever been in but I haven't raced. I was so nervous at the start my hands were absolutely jumpy. I haven't run a 400 for seven months so I was just petrified. |
I feel fantastic, really strong over the last 100m. Twenty days to go. I'm ready to go. |
I feel great. I didn't have any kick in my legs in Sydney two weeks ago but I had to hold it back today. It's the old me, I've been praying for it to arrive. |
I have never seen anything like it, |
I'm absolutely stoked. It was just a second below my PB (personal best) so in these conditions I couldn't have asked for more. |
I'm ecstatic, it was quite an easy run. I finished that with no problem. I wasn't tired, I wasn't fatigued, I felt tall, open and strong and that is a great spot to be in this close to the Games. |
I'm pretty close to that (a low 53sec) now, so I'm pretty confident. |
I've just had a tight hamstring since Brisbane (last week). I didn't want to risk it, I'm in too good a shape to risk my Commonwealth Games this year. That's it really. |
It's really helped me. I'm feeling strong again. |
It's the most exciting thing to happen to me and I think my wedding will be second. |
Rosie asked me to run and I want to run for them. To run the relay is a bonus and there is no real pressure. |
She did an awesome job. It's a beautiful story for her to win in front of her home crowd. |
That is where all the talk should be done, nowhere else. |
