"I finally got to witness it last night, and it’s truly a spectacle!
"It’s one competitor at a time, and all the eyes in the building are watching only you when it’s your turn. It’s what we athletes call 'SHOWTIME'.
"There’s nothing better than being able to put your years of hard work and dedication on display in front of thousands of raucous fans screaming in support!
"Thank you to every fan who goes wild during these moments. You make them special for the athletes, and we never forget them!
"And thank you @katrintanja - you continue to inspire and amaze, and it was an absolute joy to watch you in your element last night!"
