You ALWAYS knew what to say and when to say it. When I came in 4th in criterium and Sprints Day one of the Police and Fire National Championships. I was very upset because one of the racers was still a PRO. You said, “You can only focus on you and what you do the next couple of days. Forget about today.”
Well, I placed 4th-6th the rest of the week and because I was consistently in the top 6, I won the Bronze!
On the last day I was 4th in the Omnium and I placed 6th in the road race and the 3rd place placed 11th. That gave me enough points to take the Bronze!
