finished happy relief
I am just so happy that it is all over, it is such a relief to be finished racing.
bed bit definitely hurt liked massage spent time
I would have liked to have spent a little bit more time in bed this morning. I'm a little bit sore. The 200 (relay) probably hurt substantially more than I ever thought it could. I am definitely going to have a massage now.
focus outcome problem thinking
Obviously, I had the problem of thinking about the outcome again, so I didn't focus on the process.

Obviously I can't win seven gold now, it's impossible, so it's a bit of pressure off.
absolutely girls great head job
We're absolutely delighted. I just put my head down and the girls did a great job earlier.
That was awesome. It was always going to going to be tough. I'm over the moon.
That was just awesome, I'm over the moon.

To even consider winning seven gold medals wouldn't be a smart thing to do. To think about a potential seven gold medals is just ridiculous.

Our training for Melbourne depends so much on the documents and the training log books, so please return it.
bit came games happy nervous pressure team
I probably came into this a bit more nervous than I thought I would. I put a lot of pressure on myself to do something a bit special. But I'm happy to be on the team for the Commonwealth Games now.
chance focusing learn program races
I never say anything is impossible. But I am just focusing on reaffirming what I did at the Commonwealth Games. I am here to learn from all of my races and see what I can do after such a big program at the Commonwealth Games. I haven't had a chance to come down from my achievements.

It's been very hard to sustain my intensity but that was a good time in a good field so to win was great.
capable sort
That's insane. I never really thought I was ever capable of that sort of thing.
change competition finals past racing scariest struggled swim toughest
It was probably one of the scariest finals that I ever had to swim in because I've had my toughest competition here. I've really struggled in the past racing Jodie and Alice. That's the one thing I wanted to change in this race.
