What did Gachau Njoroge say about bodybuilding?
He wore a dark posing brief bearing competition number 369, and his focused expression captured the intensity of what would be his final performance on the bodybuilding stage.

"Every warrior deserves one last dance. I came. I conquered. I left with respect for the process and no excuses for the outcome. The judges made their call, and I respect it.
