"I had wanted this [51 seconds] and to race in this stadium (London) for so long so to do so well in this atmosphere…I couldn’t be happier...I’d been feeling great in training and that I could not only run 51 but do it in my last competition before Budapest is great. I have all the information I think we need in what we can do better – now it’s time to work hard and get the last things perfect."

"Changing my stride pattern is one of the biggest changes I will make in my career. I like the challenge. I knew it would be tough but I really like the feel of the 14 strides compared to 15 so I think we made a really good decision."

"Everyone brings their A game to the championships and I hope to do the same."
