I don't have a lot of regrets in my life.

When I'm in a bad mood, I don't listen.

I am very determined and the sport is my passion. I believe I am born for running.

I lie around the floor with my cats Billy and Jazz or watch DVDs with my best friends.

I'm doing something now where I'm going to have to learn so much and that takes time nurturing, those kinds of relationships.

I quite clearly have made the right decision in my heart, retirement was the way.

The last sort of really low-key race I ran, I realized with about a hundred metres to go, that my heart just wasn't in it. I wasn't trying my hardest, I didn't care to compete against the girls I was up against. That spoke a lot about where my heart was taking me-which was off the track.
