meganlynn09It's about the women's 10m platform (diving).
So, on Laura Wilkinson's last two dives, when she took those moments to look over at her teammates, and she was obviously holding back, I cried both times. I'm not even sure why, but when they were talking about her coach and that he said her triceps were wrecked and that these were her last Olympics (and last international dives?)...
I just cried during her last two dives. And got teary eyed during her interview.
Damnit, shouldn't I have had these emotions last week?!
Anyway, so many congrats to my neighbor to the north, Emilie Heymans, who was fantastic in each of her dives. :D
So...I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE MEN'S BEACH VOLLEYBALL FINAL.
