"When I'm in the locker room ahead of a race, I listen to speeches or watch performances. Former President Barack Obama's speeches are a heavy favourite. I'll watch my favourite Beyonce performances and I'll think, 'Bey crushed that.' Her audience is way bigger than mine and she keeps her composure from start to finish. It helps me feel small in a sense and calms my nerves." (sports.yahoo.com, 21 Jul 2021)

"When I step on the track, it's all business. It has to be that way or you won't get the results you want. If you put too much energy into something and in my case it's track, then it consumes you and the pressure mounts. So, preparation is work hard, play hard." (sports.yahoo.com, 21 Jul 2021)
