01:30Woo!
01:32Woo!
01:34Or the stars who shared just how much the Games
01:36meant to not only them, but to their families as well.
01:41It's a feeling of competition
01:43that almost every athlete feels
01:45after such a life-changing event.
01:47And Simone Biles has previously echoed this same sentiment,
01:51telling theolympics.com in early August,
01:54The Olympics is such a draining process for the athletes.
