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.

My job is my sport so I have to make sure that I stay focussed on it. I train almost every day so it takes up a lot of my life and you don't want to bring any new distractions into your life.

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

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

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

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

I'm really hard on myself as well, nothing is good enough for me in training. I always want more, I always want to give 100%. I use my training like a competition. I imagine these two girls next to me every time single time I'm going over those hurdles in training.
