That was interesting - and my god it exposed the proximity she has to mental fragility / anxiety. But I learned nothing at all about training techniques, the specifics of the sport, the competition structures, the ins and outs of race day etc. Bit of a shame that. I don't know much about the technical side of the sport and this left me none the wiser. I find it a tad patronising to her and to me that the edit seemed to spend longer with the soap opera of her personal life than with the nature of the sport itself and the type of (physical) agony she has to put herself through to achieve what she has. The politics of the team were interesting though.
