I'd like to show people that if you put the hard work in and you believe in yourself, then you can do whatever you want to.

I have run two Olympic 'A' standard times over the past 12 months and with the time I ran at the African Championships last week I know my speed and fitness are constantly improving so that I will peak in time for the Olympics.

Everyone has setbacks. I'm no different. I happen to have no legs. That's pretty much the fact.

Being disabled doesn't mean you have a disadvantage

I still find it strange, I suppose, when I say to someone, 'Can you just pass me my leg?' But I don't ever think about my disability.

I want to wake up every day and feel that I'm training harder than my competitors, that I'm dieting harder, that I'm recovering better. That's what gives me confidence when I'm lining up on the blocks. I've never gone out to prove people wrong. I just want to be the best that I can possibly be.

I grew up not really thinking I had a disability. I grew up thinking I had different shoes.
