I could see myself still swimming because I'm really enjoying the sport. But at the same time I have this biological clock that is ticking.

The fact that I am as lean as I was in 2008, I'm stronger than I was in 2008 I think I have the potential to be as fast as I was.

I know I've made huge gains in my confidence, and knowing more about my racing and myself as a person. That has made me a better athlete

I've probably given myself enough time to prepare for this meet and we're all different athletes so I can't take their results as what's going to be inevitable for me.

I went through so many things personally, emotionally and mentally during that time off that I know that I'm better for it now and I think I'm a better athlete because of that.

Everyone who has been to an Olympics says expect the unexpected. That kind of psychology games does go on, so I'm kind of expecting things to happen but I don't know who from. I think it's kind of silly but I'm prepared for it. I'd probably just laugh it off because it means that they are afraid of racing me, so it's like a huge compliment

I'm so over the moon that I have the opportunity to represent my country at a third Olympic Games.
