I am a coach on the outside of the establishment and that works.

I know what it takes to get to the top.

Some of today's athletes do not have that kind of pride. They left school at 16, have never had a job in their life and are getting Lottery funding, earning money as an athlete.

Adopting a new healthier lifestyle can involve changing diet to include more fresh fruit and vegetables as well as increasing levels of exercise.

The Stroke Association has produced leaflets that set out clearly the health risks associated with stroke that African-Caribbean people face.

But I sometimes think we have too much of a fixation about 2012.

I think the athletes respond well to me because I have been successful.
