Get ready for her to go viral again, perhaps. The 'dancing hurdler' has made it to the 2016 Rio Games.

Australia's Michelle Jenneke, who rose to fame back in 2012 when video of her dancing before her 100 metre hurdles event at the World Junior Track and Field Championships in Barcelona, will be back in the spotlight next Tuesday when the women's hurdles heats are contested.

Limbering up before settling into the blocks is not new as we see hurdlers and sprinters and long distance runners bouncing with pent up energy just before the start is called. Channelling that energy into a little dancing is another thing, though and Jenneke got her share of YouTube hits because of it.

Most competitors don't really exhibit a carefree attitude at the beginning of a race like that, usually opting for stony-faced seriousness. Jamaica's Usain Bolt is a fun-loving guy but even he reserves his dancing for pre-competition media conferences as opposed to the starting line.

Some think Jenneke might be able to show us a devil-may-care attitude because just maybe she's not so serious about competing. That's what her mom (who is also her agent) told Fox Sports. "She’s never been — and I put quotes around this — a ‘serious’ athlete. Athletics has always been something that she does, it’s not who she is," said Nicky Jenneke.

Michelle Jenneke might dispute that, however. Of her trip to Rio she told Fox Sports: "When I go over there I don't just want to go over there and just have the title of Olympian. I want to do the best I can, pushing towards making a final and I want to race well there."

Jenneke's best career international finish was a silver at the Youth Olympic Games in Singapore in 2010. This year, she finished tenth at the World Indoor Games. She won the 100 metre hurdles event at the Australian National Championships with a time of 12.93 seconds, just under the Olympic qualifying standard of 13 seconds. To be sure, Jenneke has her work cut out for her if she has designs on the podium. The bronze medal time at the 2012 Olympics was 12.48 seconds.

As far as her grabbing fame for dancing at the beginning of a race, Jenneke is fine with it. And for the folks who follow her Facebook fan page, it seems she's more than comfortable in her skin.

I definitely don't resent it," she told an interviewer on an Australian sports talk show. "It's opened up so many doors for me."
