Kent athlete Jack Green has headed back to America as he steps up his preparations for the World Championships in Beijing.

The 23 year old from Canterbury spent some time out in the States before Christmas as he looks to get his career back on track after a break from the sport.

Refreshed and ready to go again, Green is in the form of his life as he builds up to what could be a special eighteen months for the Kent star.

Having made the semi-finals of the 400 metres hurdles at the London 2012 Olympics, Green is looking to go one better next time around, but is taking his career one step at a time.

Working alongside some of the best coaches in the world in America, Green is hoping to put a spell of depression behind him and is going all out to make the most of returning to full-time training and Kent Sports News caught up with him before he flew out of the country.
