When I was trying out for my first Olympics at 16, my family and coaches tried to regulate what I ate. But the stricter they got, the more I rebelled.
Alicia SacramoneI feel blessed to have an opportunity to try out for a second Olympics team and if it doesn't work out, hey I gave it my all.
Alicia SacramoneI was terrified of vault, like literally I hated it. I had a fear of running as fast as I could at a solid object, which is I think a normal fear to have because nobody would really want to do that. Once I got over the fear of running into the table I just kind of relaxed and now it's like autopilot. I love it.
