00:00After Tokyo, I had to really take a look at, you know, all that I'd done up to that point.
00:07And I said, you know, it's not enough.
00:10And that's, it's kind of crazy saying that because at the time I was like,
00:14okay, I became, you know, the fourth fastest, you know, ever in the event of the 200.
00:20But here I am still, if I'm off my game, I'm still not enough to say that I can't be beaten
00:28because I got beat by two people that day, you know.
00:31They PR and it's like, you know, it's not enough.
00:33I need to do more.
00:34I need to self-reflect.
00:36I need to say what is it going to take for me to be confident enough to go into a meet and say,
00:41even on my off day, I'm still going to win.
00:43So as I go into this championship, this biggest stage in the world,
00:47I'm now saying I've been through the hardest parts.
00:50I've, you know, been at the bottom.
00:53I've, you know, fought my way back up.
00:55I've fixed the weaknesses.
00:57And now here I am stronger than before.
00:59You know, if I lose this time, it's not going to be because I beat myself.
01:03It's just going to be that they had to be that much better.
01:06But to be honest, when no allows is being no allows, there's no way.
