I much prefer being at home, being comfortableI fly out in about five weeks. Im just going to be doing regular training until then and Ive also got a race on the Gold Coast and a race on the Sunshine Coast.With former world champion Sally Pearson now denied the chance to defend her Olympic title due to a hamstring injury, the weight of Australian expectation shifts further onto Jennekes shoulders.Jenneke she understands and accepts shell be under pressure to deliver when she lines up on the starting blocks in Rio, but its something she thrives on.The Sydneysider is already considered one of Australias leading track medal hopes with a personal-best time of 12.82 seconds -- 0.6 of a second outside the world record -- and she thinks she still has a little bit more in me.I think over the couple of years Ill see some more improvement, Jenneke told ESPN.I dont think Im at the fastest that Ill be.Im hoping to be getting even faster in the next couple of years so I dont think Ive hit my peak yet. Chicago Blackhawks Gear .C. -- Glenn Howard needed an extra end to move into the Masters Grand Slam of Curling final. Wholesale Blackhawks Jerseys .
