A proud man
Fola gets a big hug after his elimination
Should I stay or should I go?

Fola

When they said I was going, my mind was just clear.

I'd already convinced myself that I was going so I wasn't shocked to be told I was going home.

I'm proud to have made it as far as I have.

If I'm truthful I didn't think I'd make it past the first stage at Loughborough.

But as each show went by I thought more and more that I could go all the way. But it wasn't meant to be.

Who do I think will win now?

Tom is a great athlete but Sheldon has got guts. I'd tip him to win because he can pull it out of the bag when he needs it most.

Look at his performance at Tri-Lake - amazing. He couldn't even swim a couple of weeks before he came over to Austria. That's real guts.

We might have been busting a gut everyday but I think it's a great achievement to get this far

He owes me a euro as well!

I bet him that I was going and he did the same, I should have made it 10 Euros. He's got to win now or he'll be letting me down!

There haven't been any bad moments for me. I don't see how you can have any in a beautiful country like this.

I've been away before but this has been unique. You're in the hills, it's peaceful and the weather has been amazing.

We might have been busting a gut everyday but I think it's a great achievement to get this far.

I've missed my friends at home but everyone here has made it a home from home.
