Olympic Athlete Support and Nutrition

During these Olympic Games, even when I came back late, they always had a meal ready for me,

so in terms of nutrition and how my body moved, it was the best it has ever been.

Since I received this kind of dietary support from everyone,

my body was feeling incredibly sharp, but...

that's why when we filmed the motion, I didn't understand why I failed,

because there was absolutely nothing wrong with my body.

I think I had that strength this time.

A sense of security?

Yes, a sense of security, and absolutely no nervousness.

On the morning of the free program, I was eating here while crying.

You were really eating spinach here while crying.

Saying, "It's not over yet, is it?"

You were already shedding tears, really.

Of course, I've been participating from that side, but

really, with each Olympic Games,

the support system has also evolved more and more,

and it was a truly wonderful support system, and I think it still is,

and while the Olympic Village is of course wonderful,

I think it's quite difficult to get close to our usual meals there, so

without this support, I don't think I would have been at my best.

There was not only rice but also many side dishes,

and we could replenish protein, vitamins, minerals,

and everything else,

without leaving any fatigue from the competition day,

so we could take on the next competition,

which I was truly grateful for.

It was to the point where I almost forgot I was in Italy,

it really felt like Japan,

and all the support became our strength.
