“It’s been nine years of hard work, I’ve never run this fast and I’m just so happy!

“I’m just emotional and I can’t believe it. I want to say thank you to all my team for believing in me and I’ve just kept going. 

 

“Obviously, I’ve had days when I have thought: ‘Why am I doing this?’ We all have. But you just have to keep going.

“It will come eventually and nine years of hard work… I’m just ecstatic!
