Legge was quick to respond, saying they're the ones where you finish 12th or so. It's about holding on to that form and position in the race. But she slowly shifted the conversation to how it mattered a lot as to who she was surrounded by. "I came over here and I was isolated away from my family.

From the moment I got up'Jim was teaching me about diffs, uprights and suspensions. "I was kind of getting an education in it and I was loving every minute of it....

But when his moment came, the confrontation unfolded far differently than he expected. "I was also invited to be on the committee…...
