I've been so close on so many occasions and had so many horrendous injuries. You go from hamstring tear to hamstring tear and achilles problems and then you get MS! But you've got to keep going, which I did and I've got the kit and a world record and the world title.

I've gone from being an 11.9sec runner to being a 13.5sec runner which mentally is quite hard.

For me its a struggle because I don't have a visible disability and a lot of companies want to tick a box to say they've got a partnership with a disabled athlete. But if the rest of the world can't see that they're disabled then they don't think it's worth it.

I've never had a kit sponsor. I get kit sent to me by a company but they wouldn't sign me on a proper deal. It's frustrating.

I had only been cycling for a year before I went to Rio.

I want to be able to do the Olympics and then do the Paralympics after.

To be recognized by the Queen, it's just wow, thank you.

I used to not plan ahead because of the condition I've got. But I've put that at the back of mind and not let MS control my life.

It's been tricky trying to deal with managing my eating, having so many people around me and so many eyes on me, it's pushed me to do more extreme things which is frustrating for me.

I was horrified that my life was going to revolve around not being independent.
