It feels great to be a two-time Six Nations winner.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm so proud, and it feels brilliant to be a world champion.
To finish off this whole Olympics by finally getting the gold medal, it's the best feeling in the world.
I've been proud to be national champion. I've really enjoyed it. I have very little opportunity to remind people that I'm British and it's a nice way of staying in touch. I'm going to defend it fiercely. I want to keep it.
I did try to win a sixth, but it was not to be.
If I won a second Olympic title, maybe I would be tempted to go after a third.
It just feels good to beat the world champs to be the world champs.
I think my form dipped after the Six Nations in 2007, from the World Cup onwards.
I'm a guy who wins medals rather than runs fast times, so for me, what keeps me going is winning medals for my country and making my nation proud.
I've won a world championship, I know how that feels. I don't know how it feels to win a gold medal. I want to feel that; I want to know that.
Looking back, I'm so proud to have gone to five Olympics - I believe only three other Americans have achieved that.
