With 6kms to go, the gold awaits
"It's exactly one year, it's like last year, it's just unreal... The crowds here, in the last 500 metres, ,y ears were hurting cost there were so many people from different nations cheering me on. Last year was more of as shock, and I had my head in my hands in disbelief. This year, I won't say that I knew I could win, but you know, when you have good legs, and I was more confident in my potential to win. There are so many variables and strong riders racing against you - it's unreal."
