DRUG-TAINTED British sprinter Dwain Chambers bowed out of the 100m on Sunday but said his appearance at the London Olympics was "worth every moment" of his fight to reach the Games.
"I wanted to do well and get into the final but I'm happy to be here, I really am," Chambers, who won 100m bronze at the 1999 world championships, told the BBC. "I am gutted that I didn't make the final but you can you can't have it all."
He said the fight through the courts and his efforts on the training track had been worth it.
"It was worth every moment of it, to feel that roar and be in this atmosphere again," he added. "Money can't buy that and I'm glad I fought this hard to get to this position."
The 34-year-old was caught using the designer steroid THG in 2003 and banned for two years.
