A long victory lap around the Olympic Stadium, Sally Pearson said she felt "absolutely incredible". "It’s just like it went so fast! I was so pumped after that heat and I said to my coach, ‘I want this. It has to be mine. It can’t go any other way, it has to be mine tonight'. Oh man, that was awesome," she said. "I was so nervous and I was so scared before it but I was ready and I just really wanted that. I wasn’t going to let anything stop me."
Georgina Robinson reports that Sally went on to say: "It's a dream. Relief was the first thing I felt and then shock. I'm just going through the emotions. I really wanted this. I've worked so hard for two years. To see my name on the scoreboard, I just can't believe it. I didn't realise how close Dawn [Harper] was until the end. I said in my head, 'please don't let this happen, I need this'."
Georgina tells Pearson wasn't the only one feeling the pressure. Silver medallist Dawn Harper was definitely feeling it too. "I'm happy to win a silver, there was so much pressure on me," Harper said. The 28-year-old was three lanes away from Pearson and said she also had no idea who had won. "I couldn't feel her, it was so close crossing the line and I just didn't know what had happened," she said. "I'm just so happy to be here. I wanted to be here and I wanted to be a part of it."
