Whereas in sprinting,

when the gun goes and you get up to your, like, your kind of race pace and you're just floating, say, down the back straight and you kind of hit the bend, all of that stuff is really cool.

And before you know it, the race is almost over.

And it's that sort of, that feeling of being really present, but yet it's almost gone through the motions.

And that's probably all the training that you do.

Yeah.

You don't even feel it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And even some of the races, I remember...

I remember in the Europeans in 2010, the semi-final, probably one of the best races I've ever ran.

And it just felt so easy.

And I can remember crossing and looking at the clock and it was like 44.78, my second fastest time ever.

And I remember just kind of going, oh my God, like if I actually had pushed it, what would I have ran, you know?

And that's just that brilliant feeling that all the work you've put in and then suddenly you just flick the switch and there it is.

Yeah, they have.

Why is that?

Technology.

The shoe?

The shoe and the track.
