    I made a $50 bet -- a lot of money then -- with my coach that I'd win a medal. I woke up that morning and thought, 'don't get to the bottom and wish you had a second chance, because in the Olympics, you don't get a second chance.' I was so in the moment; I wanted to feel it, I wanted to be in it -- I've used that metaphor for the rest of my life.

It was clear by then that he was with Rebecca and that they were a proper couple. I so wanted to turn my back on him but he always managed to win me over. I know now that I am weak-willed and that I should have moved on with my life but what can I say? He had such a strong hold over me, it was hard for me to deny him.
