To finish the Commonwealth Games like that is frustrating.

It's the start of my Commonwealth Games season. I didn't want to start on a bad note. And I didn't fly 24 hours here to not win.

In the past few years I've always run here before beginning serious training at altitude to get ready for the summer. I'm reasonably fit but possibly not in as good a shape as I'd possibly like to be.

Not to be cocky or anything but I knew the national record would go.

I'm pretty annoyed about it. I've got to try to take a positive out of this week ... I took a silver medal out.

I don't know what kind of shape he will be in and how he will cope with the hills around the course, but I'm all right and looking forward to making it a fourth success.
