Accessing her victory after the race in Stockholm , Amusan said she is excited to be running consistently , adding that she is not too tickled with where she is at the moment.

“I am excited to be out here competing and it is great to get the win on the back of Lausanne. The rain stopped but it was still very cold.

“I didn’t get well warmed up as it was cold but I got through and I am running consistently so it is good”, Amusan said.
