You won.

I was like, there's no chance.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

I would.

I could compartmentalize it enough to say.

to like almost turn off emotion long enough just to do the routine.

Like I could kind of numb myself for a second, but there were certain events where I needed to have my heart rate at 200 and some events where I needed it to be just like calm and steady.

So I could kind of like, I could toggle that on my own intentionally.

Olympic trials.

Oh, five million times more nerve-wracking.

If you make it past Olympic trials to the Olympics, you're an Olympian, whether you have a medal or not.
