If you hold back in hurdles, you are going to fall over.

When it becomes hard for me not to eat bad food, I try to think about what I have to do and what is ahead of me and what I want to achieve.

My goals were last year to win the world champs and this year to win the Olympic Games and I've done that and I couldn't be happier.

Winning a gold medal is not easy but I believed in myself, especially over the last four years.

Some people are used to having things done for them by her parents, I am not. I can do it myself.

Coming over to Europe you can always put on weight really easily because you are not doing your normal routine at home. It is just a bit more discipline and not eating breads and pastas which are my favourite foods in the entire world.

Hurdling, sprinting, athletics in general, is always in the back of your mind.
