I enjoy running in Doha. The stadium is close and intimate, which makes you feel connected with the fans.
From Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce
The 200 m. is the event I want to get better at.
There will always be a lot of pressure to cope with.
There are still many things to work on - the start, the transition, the finish. I am not just going to sit around and wait.
I don't know much about the history of track and field, but I know Gail Devers.
I am one of those athletes who is very hard on myself.
My coach and I will have these arguments where I am in pain or something is wrong, and I won't tell him because I feel like I need to train. We have a blow-up of arguments, and he says, 'Shelly, you need to tell me when these things are happening.'
It's hard to judge how you are feeling physically.
It's Jamaican women and children who are my inspiration.
My mum wouldn't let me go outside. Coming back from school, the gang men sometimes would say things, but I would walk by, never answer, and my mum would go tell them leave me alone.
