Jessica Turner: British hurdler on return to fitness and late bid for Olympic qualification
Derby runner Turner says the injuries she has had to deal with in recent years have been “tough and frustrating” but adds she has tried to stay “as positive as I can”.
“It’s been a really difficult time,” she added.
“The main focus post-Tokyo was the Paris Olympics and working hard towards that. But it’s never going to be smooth sailing, there is always going to be stuff coming at you that you need to deal with.
“Unfortunately, that’s what’s happened.
“I’m now just so grateful to he healthy again, it’s great to be injury-free after so long so I’ll go out and enjoy it.”
Turner is adamant she will not give up on her immediate Olympics aspirations, but as she nears her return to the track, the hurdler is also keen to talk about longer-term aims.
“It’s massively altered my journey and it’s easy to get into the mindset of ‘I can’t achieve the goal… so that’s it and I’ll give up’. But no, there’s always something more to go for,” she said.
“I’m just happy to be in the position I am now. I’m finally healthy and there is next year. Then there is the LA Olympics to go for.”
