If anyone was going to do that, she would have done it because shes such a huge fighter.Pearson, who won gold in her pet 100m hurdles event at the 2012 London Olympics, four years after winning silver in Beijing, was to have been Australias track and field team captain at the Rio Games which start August 5.The former world and dual Commonwealth champion had previously told of her frustration at her below-par comeback in Europe.I was a little disappointed with my results and also disappointed that my body was letting me down a little, Pearson wrote on her website on June 18.This has been a big year, broken bones, torn calf, degenerative achilles and hammy problems ... sometimes I wonder why I still continue to do this sport.What brings athletes back even after we get pushed down time and time again from disappointment? For me, its the excitement, the fun and the pure determination that I can overcome the setbacks and still deliver my best. Saucony Scontate .
