Why d Olympic athletes push themselves t the limits? As ne f the Olympic athletes, I miss birthday parties, ruin family hlidays and skip nights ut, but there is a very gd reasn fr giving up s much. “We’re wrried abut yu,” said my friend frm acrss the table. He was wrried that I had n lnger becme fun t train with and that I was in danger f being left with nly a wrld champinship medal and n ne t share it with. I culd have becme angry r defensive. Dn’t they knw hw hard it is t be at the tp in sprt? Dn’t they knw what it takes t get there? Hwever, deep dwn I knew elements f what he was saying were right. I was always tired and every wrkut had a mental intensity that seemed t much fr mst t handle. I was pushing the limits and extremes beynd what mst thught were healthy.These are the fears I face as a prfessinal athlete n a day-t-day basis. Wh am I ding this fr? Hw much is t much? Why am I ding this? Hw can I be s selfish? What are the sacrifices fr?I think f cuntless birthday parties and nights ut I have missed, ruining a family hliday in France because f the endless search fr a swimming pl t train in, almst missing my brther’s wedding because I was t busy hiring a car in dwntwn Jhannesburg and driving thrugh the “n-g” areas in rder t d a grup ride with the lcal triathletes. The list is endless.

Answer the questins based n what yu have read.
1. Did her friend understand her? Why? 2. Did the writer get angry with her friend? Did she try t explain? Why?3. Was she clear abut why she had chsen t be an athlete? Hw d yu knw?
3. Yes, she was. Frm the descriptin f her sacrifice we culd knw she is a “g-getter” with an enrmus amunt f drive and determinatin t be the best. We can see that thrugh her descriptins such as “ruining a family hliday because f the endless search fr a swimming pl t train in”, “almst missed my brther’s wedding because I was busy hiring a car and driving thrugh the ‘n g’ areas in rder t d a grup ride with the lcal triathletes.”
1. N, he didn’t, because he was afraid that when she reached the tp she wuld have n friends.
2. N, she didn’t, because she knew what her friend said was right and she was pushing the limits t hard. She did nt try t explain because mst peple wuld nt understand.
It bils dwn t this: I was brn with an enrmus amunt f drive and determinatin. Frm a small girl, I wuld stay in at lunch time just t get ahead n class wrk rather than g ut and play; I wuld get the bus n my wn at ten years ld and g t swim 100 lengths f the pl while ther kids played pl games; I was the nly girl in a rugby club f 250 bys. I have always lived my life t extremes. Call it unhealthy if yu want, but that is the way I rll, n matter what it is I’m applying myself t.Being a prfessinal athlete is n different. If yu want t be an Olympic champin, it’s all abut that little extra thing yu have dne in yur preparatin that will set yu apart frm yur cmpetitrs.Can this be verdne? Abslutely. But if yur dream is t be the best and reach the winner’s platfrm, yu had better be ttally cmmitted t yur sprt. In the wrds f the British triathlete Alistair Brwnlee, even if it means getting injured, “I’d prefer t have three r fur utstanding years f winning stuff than having ten years f being average.”Ding what we d as athletes sets us apart because we are willing t d that extra little bit that might take us t the tp. It is certainly nt a balanced way t live and it is certainly nt nrmal but thse wrds are generally nt used fr anyne wh is striving fr greatness.
