I've had my fair share of being dismissed. But I'm only about to turn 30. And when I finish running, I'm going to be a dangerous woman.

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

I was running since I was 10. Since grade one at school people looked at me and thought, oh gosh she can really run, she's a natural.

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

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

You got to try and reach for the stars or try and achieve the unreachable.

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