But as people much wiser than me say, competing in the Olympics doesn’t mean anything if you sell yourself short. I didn’t come here as a novelty act, and I will not be going home as one.

I was kicked off every team I was ever on before I got the chance to prove myself. I was in hospital for a year when I was a kid. Dodgy knees. All the doctors said I should give up sport, take up reading. First book I got: The Official Olympic Photo Album. 1972. Moments of Glory. That was the book that made me realise I needed my own moment --- the one thing I could do to prove them all wrong. Do you think I’m mad?
