I would never have expected to feel in this moment -- severely underperforming in an Olympics -- I would never have felt that humans could be so kind, i never would've expected that the most surprising thing of my Olympic experience is how kind people have been in the face of my failure. I mean, it is failure. It's OK to say that. I am OK with that and I'm sorry for it, but I also was trying and I'm proud of that.
