00:00this morning but you have achieved your dream, you've got that gold, tell me how it feels.
00:05It hasn't sunk in, I don't know how it feels. I just know I'm really happy, shocked, surprised,
00:13disbelief, just everything, I just can't believe that it's actually happened.
00:17You was very emotional out there, just tell us about that.
00:20Yeah I got really emotional, I think it's just like finding out the scores and
00:25knowing that I could become an Olympic champion was just the most amazing feeling and then
00:29for it to actually happen, I couldn't believe it and the crowd was so special,
00:33there were so many GB people in the crowd so it was amazing to have all of that support and
00:41the noise was incredible so it just felt really special to be part of that and
00:47really emotional when I found out I was Olympic champion, it just hasn't sunk in at all. I keep
00:53looking at the medal and trying to let it sink in a bit but I'm kind of waiting for that moment.
00:58You momentarily forgot that there was another job, what was going on in your head?
01:02Yeah so I think I was just so in the moment that when I saw my score crop up to the top I thought
01:09oh I've become Olympic champion and yeah so I was celebrating a little bit prematurely,
01:14so I was celebrating too early and then realised oh yeah there is another competitor to go and
01:18she's actually really capable of hitting that score but I was just, I think there was a mixture
01:23of I'm just happy that I've become an Olympic medalist and the relief of that as well as the
01:29joy and the excitement so the emotions that you saw were for everything, not just me thinking
01:36that I'd become an Olympic champion but for me thinking I'd become an Olympic medalist,
01:39for seeing my score, for just feeling happy about the routine that I performed and just
01:44everything in that moment. You completed the set and you said that it was the emotions coming into
01:50this and you've said previously that you have struggled with confidence despite your talent and
01:54what you've achieved so far, you know injury problems as well this year, how much pressure
01:58did you feel coming into this to you know how much it means to you, I can see that today
02:02to actually and you've done it now but how much pressure did you put under yourself?
02:05Yeah I didn't feel pressure from other people, just myself like putting, I had expectations
02:09obviously coming from a world championships where I'd won in front of a home crowd, like
02:14I know that I have the capabilities to be able to do that at the Olympic Games but
02:19the struggles of like, my ankle just didn't feel the same when I came back from world championships
02:23I had like a week off and came back and just didn't feel the same, been struggling with pain,
02:27been struggling with different issues so to be able to kind of get myself into the right
02:32physical state, thankfully like have an amazing support team around me that's able to manage
02:37that, the volume of my training to manage like what I'm doing to rehab my ankle and
02:43the physio treatments that I need, the S&C program that I need, everything to kind of
02:47get it all ready to peak at this competition and it just worked so just like yeah over the moon
02:53that I actually were able to pull it off but yeah confidence going in was low because we're
02:57struggling with training, struggling to get the numbers that I wanted to get in because of having
03:00to like manage that volume so yeah it was just found it, found it difficult to be able to believe
03:06that it could happen for these games because the prep hasn't been the best.
03:10Makes it even more sweeter and just one more for me Bryony, what next for you, I know that it's just
03:15want to enjoy your success now but you know looking ahead what's the journey?
03:19Yeah so yeah we'll definitely celebrate in the next week I'm staying in France so I'll be able
03:25to watch all of the Team GB sports and just supporting everyone that's competing
03:30and just really looking forward to like being part of Team GB as a fan as well as an athlete so
03:36yeah really looking forward to that and then I've got a few more competitions that I want to do in
03:40trampolining, a few more skills that I want to get and break that that ceiling that is currently
03:45on mine and the women's trampolining and see how far I can get, maybe join the circus if they'll
03:50have me and I still have my eyes set on LA and maybe Brisbane as well so I don't know how I'm
03:55going to squeeze it all in but I'm going to try.
