Athletics is a great sport with many different events and athletes come in all shapes and sizes. I'm one of the smallest athletes on the track. They call me the 'pocket rocket'.

I've been involved in the sport since I was seven-years-old and I have learned so many things in life from it, such as making friends and discipline.

Success doesn't come overnight and there's certain things you can't do. I've missed so many weddings, christenings and birthdays, but I know all my family are there behind me, wanting me to do really well and it was worth the sacrifice.

There's no better feeling, even if I've won a race, than recording a personal best. It's setting yourself personal goals, but also realistic goals.

Don't aim too high, but set yourself a goal which is a little bit out of your reach. You might achieve it and then you can set a new goal.

I'm not always the favourite to win, but I still enjoy it. The main thing is that I've planned for it and even if the result isn't great, I know I've done the best I can do. It's being true to, and believing in, yourself.

I've always been fortunate in that I'm quite good at what I do, but there have been many people who have made it to the high level and they weren't necessarily the fastest runner in their class at school. Concentrate on yourself. It's down to planning, preparation and being dedicated.
