“Preparations-wise, honestly, it wouldn’t have been the way I wanted it this year but, ultimately, I felt like I had a good training session last month, and I think that has been really good for me. So, I am always one of those persons who believes that experience will work,” the Jamaican sprint queen said.
“It [experience] will always give you a solid start and so that is what I am banking on — the experience that I have had all the other years that I have been to different championships. I am really hoping to showcase that in the coming days. For me, it is getting to the line — that is most important for me,” she added.
She was also in awe of making her fifth Olympic Games, noting that it is not something many athletes have achieved. Fraser-Pryce made her debut at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games where she won the women’s 100m title before defending her title at the 2012 London Olympics.
