I was too sick to get nervous, too sick to get caught up and be obsessed with, Oh my God, Im (competing) in my home country. I literally just became robotic because of my illness.I just had to go from A to B and then just take each step at a time.Manley and her coaches werent sure whether she could physically get through her free program.
