Each time I mess up I try to go back to practice and fix it. Track and field is 90% mental. So if you’re negative and hard on yourself it’s harder to move on and harder to succeed in the sport.

I think being able to understand your event and know how technical it is, helps you know what you need to do to improve.

I just had so much inside me and so much that I knew I could do. At the time it was tough not making the Olympic team but overall it was part of my plan.

I don’t think I would want to change the past because not making that Olympic team made me hungrier for the next race and perhaps that was why I was able to go out and break the world record.

What you got to do is to compete under pressure. The girls who got the Olympic slots went out and ran 100%. I did not rise to the occasion and that is my fault
