Jana Pittman Quotations

She did an awesome job. It's a beautiful story for her to win in front of her home crowd.

I feel great. I didn't have any kick in my legs in Sydney two weeks ago but I had to hold it back today. It's the old me, I've been praying for it to arrive.

I feel fantastic, really strong over the last 100m. Twenty days to go. I'm ready to go.

We had a pretty young team last time in Manchester and we are a quite experienced now.

We had no food, no electricity, we moved floors in the hotel because the ground floor was flooded. Three people who were staying there passed away after they were electrocuted when they went out on the street.

Rosie asked me to run and I want to run for them. To run the relay is a bonus and there is no real pressure.

As long as I do the talking with my feet and not anything else, I can rebuild myself.

They rightly deserved to win the gold medal.

A lot of us females think if you are really lean you are going to run really fast but it is not really about that -- it is if you are really strong you are going to run really fast. If you are too skinny you haven't got any bulk so it is quite a fine line.

It's the most exciting thing to happen to me and I think my wedding will be second.

It's really helped me. I'm feeling strong again.

That is where all the talk should be done, nowhere else.

I've just had a tight hamstring since Brisbane (last week). I didn't want to risk it, I'm in too good a shape to risk my Commonwealth Games this year. That's it really.

They have won a gold medal, even if we get revenge by default.

This is just fantastic, nothing will ever beat this, it's the greatest day of my life.

I'm ecstatic, it was quite an easy run. I finished that with no problem. I wasn't tired, I wasn't fatigued, I felt tall, open and strong and that is a great spot to be in this close to the Games.

I'm absolutely stoked. It was just a second below my PB (personal best) so in these conditions I couldn't have asked for more.

I'm pretty close to that (a low 53sec) now, so I'm pretty confident.

I am probably in the best shape I've ever been in but I haven't raced. I was so nervous at the start my hands were absolutely jumpy. I haven't run a 400 for seven months so I was just petrified.

This has been the most amazing experience of my life. I don't think there'll be a moment that matches this ever again. It was just sensational.
