I’ve not long got back to my hotel room after running at the prestigious Zurich Golden League meeting, which prides itself on replicating the World Championship final. I finished 6th out of 9 in a competitive field and my time was 13.37. (0.2)

I thought that I should have run faster had I not made a mistake half-way down the track, but to run 13.3 and call it a bad race, shows that I am in new territory and consistently faster than I was, compared to the first half of the season. Always focussing on the positives is very important. The stadium was a sell-out, the track felt magical underneath my toes and the crowd were very vocal, all of which makes for a vibrant atmosphere.
