What's the worst that could happen? You're going to come second or lose? It's not like someone has got a gun to your head.

The roar of the crowd when you come out for a final is like nothing else: when 15,000 people are cheering you, a lot of adrenaline goes right through you.

People make the mistake of thinking they've got to perform just because someone has said something about their potential.

You can easily say, 'I can go 56', but how are you going to do that?

I've been going to the same barber the last few years, and we have great chats whenever I'm in the chair. He'll ask: 'How you doing? How's the training going?' Just ordinary, obvious things, but then, like you do with your barber, you start talking about personal stuff.

When you take the world record, a lot of people are going to go out there to get you, really. I kind of enjoy that. I like being chased.
