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

I took a lot of bad things after Athens. I just learnt to deal with it. The problem was beforehand I had this feeling where I was trying to please everybody - I wanted everybody to like me.

I've been to three Olympics and I don't feel I've ever quite achieved my best at any of them.

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

Go in any direction..seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs.

I would be happy with an Olympic bronze. What I don't have is an Olympic medal.

It's important that athletes can compete on a level playing field. And youngsters coming into the sport can know that if they are working hard and training hard, they'll see a true reflection of where they stand and what they can achieve worldwide and not be swayed by people who are cheating.
