I had dreamed of being at the Olympics since I was 7 years old.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It's been a dream for me since I was six years old to go to the Olympic Games and to finally have that dream realised is something massive for me.
My childhood dream was to win the Olympics, and I've done that. Everything else is icing on the cake.
It was a dream come true for me to be at the Olympics.
Getting to the Olympics was, has always been, my swimming dream since I was 8 or 9 years old. You know, right after I started swimming it was, 'I want to make an Olympic team. That's where I want to be.'
I didn't really ever dream of going to the Olympics until after 2012.
The Olympics is nothing I ever dreamed about. I dreamed about playing for Coach Knight and Indiana.
I never had those dreams of making the Olympics. Never.
Like every other athlete, I always dreamt of playing at the Olympics, and it feels really good to see that dream materialize.
Fighting at the Olympics has been my lifelong dream, and I cannot believe I am there now.
I started Little Athletics when I was five years old, but my Olympics dream started when I was 10 years old.
