Charlotte gets some advice from Michael Johnson
Charlotte preferred the running to the hitting
Charlotte

I knew I was going out.

I lost it this week maybe in my mind as much as anything and I knew Sally was going to pick up on that.

But I'm happy to get as far as I have and I've had a great time.

I thought I might have got to the final if I hadn't lost it. I don't know what happened.

I think the next two shows would have been good for me, I really wanted to do the Tri-Lake.

The rest of the girls didn't want to do it but I really fancied it.

It will be hard to cope going home because I'm now used to living with all these people.

It feels like we've been together for a long time now.

It will be hard but I need to get on with my own life now.

This won't be a step back for me, it'll be a step forwards especially with the advice that Sally gave me
Charlotte

That means meeting my friends, getting some money and going shopping!

Strike was my worst event because Sally said I wasn't putting enough effort into it.

But it wasn't really my sort of event. It's hard to push yourself in that, I prefer events where you have to crawl over the line.

If people say: "Push yourself to the limit," when you're trying to hit a ball, I think that's pretty stupid.

This won't be a step back for me, it'll be a step forwards especially with the advice that Sally gave me.
