He added: “If I feel good, I will be there to fight for what I fought for for 20 years.” “There are two ways, thinking I’m not ready for what I did today on the track, which is understandable and acceptable. The other is that There are two weeks left and we can change it. “Even though it’s a difficult moment, it’s a frustrating day. I feel closer to trying, even though I’m overwhelmed now.”
“I will see what plan I will implement to be different from how I was today and I will try.
