I don't listen to music before a race - my coach doesn't like it, he thinks I might lose my focus and concentration.

I am doing what I do [athletics] because the fans love it and it's a part of me, it's my personality. I think people come to see you run fast, but they also come to see a show, a performance. They want to see a personality, and that's what I give them.

If I can stay [involved] with the sport, we can find different ways to motivate people and preach to them and explain to them that all they need is dedication to the sport.

Worrying gets you nowhere. If you turn up worrying about how you're going to perform, you've already lost. Train hard, turn up, run your best and the rest will take care of itself.

Believe in your dreams and that anything is possible.

I still have the drive. I just want to push the barriers and see what I can do and how far I can go. I am just determined and driven.

I want to stay involved in athletics; I want to encourage kids to take part and try to grow the sport.
