Zitat des Tages von Michael East:
I could produce spurts of speed and after taking up athletics I found myself running quite quickly over 400m.
So when you put the kick in and the other runners go past you, it's game over!
Deciding on when to kick is crucial and depends on how the race is unfolding.
I first discovered my turn of pace when I was playing football as a kid.
It probably won't sink in until I've retired from running but I'm a much better athlete than two years ago.
You have to have your wits about you and think quickly on your feet.
If you go too soon, you can come unstuck with 50m left when the guys are going past you.
Winning Commonwealth gold was just totally unbelievable.
It is a natural gift I was born with but it's something I've had to nurture in training.
