As an athlete, there are advantages being with a team and getting regular physio...

Actually I don't choose to expose myself in public. I choose to compete; the other side just comes with the package.

Plenty of people who are 38 have run really well in the marathon.

I can't imagine living and not running.

I used to say that the newspapers were tomorrow's fish and chip paper, but I didn't really mean it; I could still be hurt by what they said. After Athens, I just didn't care.

I deliberately returned slowly to training after Raphael was born and everything, apart from being bitten by a dog while out training in Monaco at the beginning of the year, has gone pretty well.

You see, with me, when I'm nervous, I smile and laugh.
