[ATHLETE INSIGHT]
RUNNING in the Olympic stadium is always a privilege, as I have fond memories of watching during the 2012 Olympics. The atmosphere at the Muller Anniversary Games (where he set that mile PB) was great and when I edged nearer the front it got even better, helping me dig that bit deeper. My performance has helped me find a bit more motivation for the rest of the season, as it had been lacking having not made the Olympic team.
Not making the team for Rio has made me realise how important every opportunity is to run a standard. However, it is obviously a disappointment, as this season was targeted at Rio, and I had hoped to have run at least one standard before the trial.
