00:19This obviously gained a lot of attention.

00:38She said this whole situation has taught her a lot of lessons.
00:40She thanked those who have stood by her.
00:42And I do also want to mention that she apologized to the other athletes, which is fair.
00:46But now, of course, it's time to let us know what you think about the spiral situation.
