Looking Back


Colin Jackson


My career has been very fulfilling because it has made Colin Jackson and allowed people to know what Colin Jackson is all about. It has allowed me to touch the world.

I would never have had the opportunity in any other line of work, so I'm really appreciative of that.

My ambitions are to remain healthy for the rest of the season and to have people remember Colin Jackson for what he was and what he achieved.

However, for any young athlete coming through there should only be one priority.

Enjoyment, enjoyment, enjoyment. That's what sport is all about.
