- When and why did you join DSD?
I joined athletics when I was 10 because I realised I was faster than all of my friends in primary school.
- What is your favourite/best event?
my favourite and best event is the 1500m on the track.
- What is the proudest moment in your athletics career so far?
my proudest moment in my career so far is when I won bronze in the U18 national 1500m outdoors. It was my first track national medal so it meant a lot to me.
- What is your favourite athletics moment in history?
my favourite athletics moment in history is when Dave Wottle won gold in the 1972 Munich Olympics in the 800m.
- If you could do a session with any athlete past or present, who would you pick and why?
I would do a session with Jakob Ingebrigtsen because he’s my favourite athlete.
