On The Record
But I did keep doing the rehab so there is a motivation there. I gave my head a break. I wouldn’t keep on coming back from injury if I didn’t want to be in it. I feel that after London, I have unfinished business with the Olympics. I do want to be in Rio – that’s what’s keeping me going. I haven’t reached my potential. I want to get my chance to prove that and show that I have more to give.
