You can't give up until the finish line, that's something I've learned.
It's definitely not the typical path. But at the same time, I've been working at this since I was young. I've been swimming and running my entire life, and I've been given so much support the last few years in cycling, that I've been able to improve. And I'm still improving and still absorbing that support to help me get to be the best that I can be.
Everyone said, 'Yeah, you can do it, you can qualify.' But it wasn't something that I actually believed I could do. Even now, I definitely understand and know I'm going to the Olympics, but I don't think it will fully sink in until I'm actually there and experiencing it.
