Birmingham 2016 IAAF DIAMOND LEAGUE Birmingham (GBR) 5 June 2016 Flash Quotes Melissa COURTNEY (GBR) 1500m Women - Second place: 4:07.55 I knew I was in that kind of shape. I'm surprised but at the same time I have been bashing these times out in training, it's just about getting it right in the race. This is my fourth race now and I am getting quicker each race. I ran 4:10 last time so I didn't know if this (4:07.55) would be within my reach. It's good because we were just racing it out there and it was such a competitive field. You can't treat it as a time trial, I did that too many times last year. I tried to go for the win. I'm a lot closer than I thought I was to it (Olympic QT) but the Europeans is the main focus (achieved this time). 05/06/2016 13:31 Holly BRADSHAW (GBR) Pole Vault Women - 8th place - 4.35 I'm feeling a little bit rusty, I was not really sure where I was in the air and I was knocking bars off but it was nice to be back out there competing! I'm a little bit disappointed but it was all I could manage today, but moving on the to the next one. I'm not really looking fo markers, I know if I can compete to the best of my ability I can jump 70-80 so I'm just trying to nail the technique in and training is going really really well I just can't quite get it over to competition yet so hopefully in the next month or so I can dial it in. 05/06/2016 13:38 INTERNET Service: birmingham.diamondleague.com Page 1of20 printed at 05/06/2016 17:02 IAAF DIAMOND LEAGUE Birmingham (GBR) 5 June 2016 Flash Quotes Sarah McDONALD (GBR) 1500m Women - Winner: 4:07.18 I noticed I hadn't gone through as fast as I had hoped but I felt really good. I really wanted to get the European qualifying time but I'm now really close to the Olympic standard as well so I am very happy. I've won every race I've done this year and hopefully in my next one I'll go even quicker than that.I know that there is more to come. 05/06/2016 13:38 Madara PALAMEIKA (LAT) Javelin Throw Women - Winner - 65.68 I got here very tired and I didn't expect anything so I perform the best ever because it was pretty much very hard results so I'm very excited. I'm hoping for a medal at the Olympics, it's my goal and my dream. This win has given me more confidence and now I can dream that everything is possible so I'm just fighting for my place step by step and I'm the one that is suprisingly winning something, I have't won something big so I'm hoping for this year. 05/06/2016 13:51 INTERNET Service: birmingham.diamondleague.com Page 2of20 printed at 05/06/2016 17:02 IAAF DIAMOND LEAGUE Birmingham (GBR) 5 June 2016 Flash Quotes Goldie SAYERS (GBR) Javelin Throw Women - Ninth - 57.08m I'm a bit disappointed, I'm going to have to find my timing because it was slightly off. Unfortunately the javelin isn't flying as far as I would like. I just need the competitions behind me at the moment. The body is fine, the health is there. The power is there and for me that is a big difference. I have got a few more comps before trials so I hope to throw the qualifying standard before then. 05/06/2016 13:52 Kim COLLINS (SKN) 100m Men - Winner - 10.11 No I really didn't, a lady hasn't given me flowers in quite a while so I was really surprised. It was a good race and if I was to really Well as you get older you have to be wiser and taking care of teh body is a little more tricky so I have to rest properly, eat propoerly and make sure that the training is the way it is supposed to be in terms of getting fit first before thinking about running fast. I have to make sure my body is in good condition before I think about pressing the gas. 05/06/2016 13:59 INTERNET Service: birmingham.diamondleague.com Page 3of20 printed at 05/06/2016 17:02 IAAF DIAMOND LEAGUE Birmingham (GBR) 5 June 2016 Flash Quotes Adam GEMILI (GBR) 100m Men - Sixth place - 10.29 The race itself didn't was not great - I stumbled a bit at the start. and it was very hard to get back into the race. I didn't try to push it as hard as I did last year because I was out for the season then. These meets are good for development but the major championships are where you want to be at your best. I'm heading to Geneva next week and build up towards to Trials. I'm at a different stage of the season to a lot of the guys in the field - they are well into their seasons whereas I only started last week. The race sharpness will come, my body is in a great place. 05/06/2016 14:04 Anyika ONUORA (GBR) 400m Women - Sixth Place - 51.55 This is the quickest I've run this time of year, but I'm there or thereabouts so it's great to come here and get a good run in in front of a home crowd. My coach only cares about what we do when we get to the Champs. First job is to get your individual spot and then perform at the Championships which I'm pretty good at doing and that's all that matters. 05/06/2016 14:09 INTERNET Service: birmingham.diamondleague.com Page 4of20 printed at 05/06/2016 17:02 IAAF DIAMOND LEAGUE Birmingham (GBR) 5 June 2016 Flash Quotes Seren BUNDY-DAVIES (GBR) 400m Women - Fourth place: 51.33 My coach and I knew we were in PB shape. I was frustrating to start my season (in Ostrava) in a race which didn't reflect the shape I'm in. Patience was the main thing and it paid dividends today. I just ran my own race - I quite like the inside lanes as I'm more of a strength based runner so I try to switch off . It's great to do that time here and gives me confidence for the Trials. I know I can do that here in Birmingham so I'm very excited. 05/06/2016 14:14 Christine OHURUOGU (GBR) 400m Women - Seventh Place - 52.40 Awful, I don't think I've ever felt that bad before. I don't know why that happened that was really unusual. It was a weird one, I've only been back from Florida for 2 weeks so training has been a bit... I had to accomodate for the cold a lot of the time so a lot of sessions were changed but I don't think that would have been too much of a problem. It's nice and hot today so I'm not sure what is going to happen now to be honest but my coach is going to batter me I know, so we'll just see what happens. I feel fine, I can't really complain about training nothing has gone wrong so I'm just really surprised that is not really coming together. I've got my time for Rio but I'm not really worrying about that, qualifying for that is irrelevant it's about getting a job done and running what I need to run. Very very disappointed, very disappointing but it's how it goes sometimes and you can't get it right everytime. 05/06/2016 14:14 INTERNET Service: birmingham.diamondleague.com Page 5of20 printed at 05/06/2016 17:02 IAAF DIAMOND LEAGUE Birmingham (GBR) 5 June 2016 Flash Quotes Cassandra TATE (USA) 400m Hurdles Women - Winner: 54.57 I went out pretty hard for the first half of the race. I had to fight hard right to the end. Eilidh (Doyle) pushed me all the way - she is a very good athlete and always great to compete against her. 05/06/2016 14:22 Eilidh DOYLE (GBR) 400m Hurdles Women - Second Place - 54.57 I'm pleasesd with how the race went I felt really smooth and strong, it would have been good to win it but you can't call it much closer than that. It's great, I didn't have any points last year so it's great to just be on the board and I think that's put me first or second so that's great. I'm in a great place everything is going well I'm just trying to get some good races under my belt then get ready for trials and secure that spot on the plane to Rio. It was a good strong race, it was a bit windy today so it's not ideal for hurdling I fell like I put together a good race. 05/06/2016 14:25 INTERNET Service: birmingham.diamondleague.com Page 6of20 printed at 05/06/2016 17:02 IAAF DIAMOND LEAGUE Birmingham (GBR) 5 June 2016 Flash Quotes Olga RYPAKOVA (KAZ) Triple Jump Women - Winner - 14.64 - SB It went very well for me, and the weather is perfect.
