I did have a brief flash of 'Oh no, not now, not here.' In a way it was a huge setback. It meant a little extra double poling for me at the start of my leg. But fortunately ... it wasn't insurmountable.

It's truly a historical moment for our sport, for clean sport and I'm just thrilled with the result...

I wanted to be on the podium. That's what I was going for and I missed it. This has happened a few times in the past. I've been fourth at a world championships. It's a hard place to be, I'll admit it. I'll live.

I still think I have a chance for one more medal here.

I think everything in Canada was rolling for us so well that we almost couldn't fail. It is a different scene in Europe. It would be nice to just keep on winning heading towards the Games.
