I can't tell you how much everyone has worked so hard for me, as well as myself.
From Greg Rutherford
I thought I was going to jump further than that, but I don't care - I'm Olympic champion.
I knew I was going to be a sportsman.
When I picked athletics, I knew I wanted to be an Olympic champion.
I think the first time baby recognises me and smiles is going to be one of the most amazing times of my life, to be honest.
I was quite lucky: although my dad worked a lot, whenever he was free, he would play sports with me and my brother, and I can't wait to do that with my child.
My grandfather died before I was born, so I never had the chance to speak with him about his father. But I learned about him from books.
I dabbled in football myself until the age of 14, but I didn't have as much love for the sport as I did track and field. I would never have been good enough to take it to the highest level.
There's definitely football in the blood, but my body made my decision for me that I was going to be an Olympic athlete instead.
I haven't actually checked my family tree, but Rutherford is a very old Scottish name, so I've probably got Scottish genes a few generations back.
