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.

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.

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.

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.

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

I imagine these two girls next to me every time single time I'm going over those hurdles in training.

I have a huge passion for animals and while retirement is a long way off, when I do I would love to do something with animals.
