With the Olympics now just months away, Dina is looking to go a step further and add more medals to her cabinet.
She commented: "It's the Olympic Games.
"There are so many talented women out there running unbelievable times.
"I think we have got three or four of the fastest women of all time in action right now.
"Not all of them were at the European Championships, some of them run for America and Jamaica. It is no easy task.
"First and foremost I have to keep training and get a little bit faster.
"While 10.85 and 21.89 are good times and would put me in good stead at a normal World Championships and Olympics, the fantastically talented women across the world are so fast that won't let me sit here and say 'it is going to be nice and easy'."
