I really wanted to dance but my mother thought, 'You are always running with your brother so you two can take up athletics?' At first I was focused on the 100m and 200m events, but due to my height my coach said to try the 400m." (runnersworld.nl, 06 Mar 2020)

To compete at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. (runnersworld.nl, 06 Mar 2020)
