Flash Interviews - 100 m women 2nd round summary

Torri EDWARDS USA
It felt a lot better than in the morning. I picked up my speed and after 60 metres I relaxed. At the end I saved a lot of energy. I think in full speed I can run in the 10.8-10.9 region. I think I look pretty good to win.

Veronica CAMPBELL JAM
The two false starts did not affect me at all. I just made sure that I stayed in my race. I cannot let false starts be a distraction. Now, I am just staying focused on tomorrow's races.

Christine ARRON FRA
I didn't react too well, but I remained focused on my race scheme and kept to push. I don't have the same build and strides as my opponents, so I just have to run my race. For a short moment I felt dizzy but I didn't panic and kept going. Tomorrow the real competition will start.

Chandra STURRUP BAH
I am back, but still it is not the way I want to be. For making the finals I need to work more on my mechanics.

Lauryn WILLIAMS USA
Good race, still relaxed, I was not forced to run too hard. I'm glad I made this round over and at the finish line was in the top two. I'm looking forward to tommorrow. And if you want to know more you should read my blog.
