\u2018\u2019After Beijing I felt fatigue. Not emotionally but physically. I can\u2019t dwell on my past performances and I try to look at the next race. After I was happy with my level of performance and that I came away without injuries. Of course I did not race in Beijing the way that I used to. In the closing stages of my race I was leaning forward too much. I have to think more about executing my own race instead of competing against other athletes. It was a hard lesson, but I have learned.\u2019\u2019 \u2018<\/p>\n
\u2019Age is not what determines your level of performance. It\u2019s all about how focused and motivated you can be. To me it feels like this year is just a prelude to Rio. I will have to step my game up. This year I was consistent in running 9.7, next year I will need to do better.\u2019\u2019 <\/p>\n
\u2018\u2019What I want to do is to offer young and talented athletes an opportunity to knock me off the podium and to prove how good sprinters they can become.\u201d <\/p>\n
