Thank you to everyone that has made me the athlete I am! God, family and friends, my competitors and supporters! You have all had a hand!

When you're competing, you don't have the choice of what the weather will be like. It really doesn't affect me. I ran one of my fastest times in the New York Diamond League meeting last year. It was raining pretty hard then.

Being disabled doesn't mean you have a disadvantage

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.

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

If the legs did provide such an advantage that some of the people are claiming they did, then there would be a lot more amputees using the exact same prosthetic legs I have, running the exact same times I have - and that's not the case.
