deep breathing and positive thinking and just face the fear...go to the meet and run...everyone can expect what they want, that doesnt have to affect u, u can CHOOSE what affects you...just do ur best and be happy with urself, no one can decide whats good enough from you....just go there knowing it doesnt matter at the end of the day what the outcome is...there is alot more to ur life than this meet...yes it would be great to win, and strive for ur best for that but if it doesnt happen, u dont owe anybody anything!! they are expecting this from u but do u have expectations of them that they live up to? probably not...fair is fair...and realize that deep down these expectations may not be as strong as u think they are...they may just be pushing u to try ur best and thats all they want and it may just be coming across like u HAVE to win in thier eyes...if thats the case, they just want whats best for u and as long as u do ur best they will be happy too...if this is not true and they truly arent going ot be happy with ur best, screw them...their opinion doesnt matter, really
Imagine the meet is already over and you have won again... Then when you actually do perform, it will be like your just out playing... Have Fun...
