I wished to have a final shot to return to the highest, I modified coach and coaching strategies and it paid off. As we speak the final 20m have been actually robust, I didn’t really feel my arms however I advised myself I wouldn’t let go. I nearly cried afterwards however managed to carry it again. I’m sturdy, !”
