"You know to win in any women hurdles race is just amazing because these women are just so amazing themselves. So for me I am just on cloud nine. The women's hurdles is just like, if you come top three, you are doing a big one, actually the whole field. So, it is just amazing, I feel great."
Further speaking about competing with high school athlete, Taylor Cox during the race, Russell said:
"It is just so amazing to see, how far she has come because I have been watching her for the last two-three years."
