People could see in me who I am now, an Olympic champ, the best in the world.

I have time to breathe, time to be myself more often, I am a lot more relaxed and less guarded.

It is my second visit to Korea since the International Junior Athletic Championships in 1992. Both then and now, I felt Korea is an interesting country and the people are very kind.

My feelings tried to control me on my run. I had to concentrate fully on forthcoming running and success. I wanted to triumph.

I feel like I've reached an age where I can relax a little bit with the knowledge of what I've been through, take all that experience and use it. I love the challenge of trying to get back to where I've been, and beyond it.

I'm so lucky. I have such a great support system. All I have to do is run.

Being overseas at the time it all kind of happened was perfect because I had no idea that it was going to attract so much media attention and provoke these lovely people calling in and offering up their opinions and advice.
