Tonight was not about winning, it was about focusing on myself and what I was aiming to do. It's the reason why I was able to swim so well

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.

It's so rewarding the journey that I've been on.

I really would like to start a family as well. Whether I can balance the two or have to decide one or the other way, I'm not sure what will happen.

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 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.

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.
