A few months later, the World Championships were held in Tokyo and I was ready again, ready to win, and nobody could stop me.
A medal was not enough. I wanted the gold medal and I got it. Totally crazy. I had a lot of pressure on my shoulders and for more than a week I could hardly sleep. The night before the competition, I slept only one hour but I started the day as if it was the last day of my life, giving everything. I got the bronze medal and I was so happy. When I came back to Greece, it was like a gold medal for my country, as we only won two medals in London in all the sports.
Never tired, inIliadis won again the world title in Chelyabinsk, Russia. I should have stopped. It was enough. My body and my brain had enough of all those years at the highest level. But human being are animals, there always want more and I wanted more. Everything had gone well. My judo was good but my mind was not in good shape. In the morning of that day in Rio, I had mixed feelings.
I was happy to be there, but sad because I knew that it would be my last fight. Honestly, when I went on the tatami, I was not there. I was not present. I was somewhere else. I couldn't find my place in a new life. One day I decided to go back on the tatami. I took my judogi and went to training. I suddenly realized that I had a duty, the one of explaining to the judo community what mistakes I made, to make sure they wouldn't do the same.
I wanted to share may passion, my experience.
