I think my friends and family were really shocked and dissapointed...I really didn't care about placing at all i really just wanted to see if I could do it. If I could take the pressure, do the extreme dieting. There were moments tword the end when I wished it would just be over and I felt like shit and just wanted to die because of the lack of energy, but I kept telling myself to just push through it's almost over...it will be soooo worth it in the end. IT DEFINATELY WAS!
It's odd, but the harder my training got (I was yelled at alot to push harder at the end...ugh!!!), the more tired and the less energy I had only made me want to push harder to make it...I think you have to be a little mental to do this shit...LOL!
