Speaking to Us Weekly, Trista explained that she was struggling while filming the challenge, and her heath took a hit.
“When I got back from the beach on the first day, I was in hypothermic shock. My lips were turning blue in the vehicle on the way back. It was bad. I was extremely lethargic,” she recalled, adding, “It was really scary.”
Trista had more to say about the experience: “When I was on the beach, I stopped Rudy and I said, ‘I think I’m going to faint.’ And he’s like, ‘Well, what do you want to do?’ I said, ‘I would love to see a medic.’ And he is like, ‘Well, you can’t, if you see a medic then you’re voluntarily withdrawing.’ … And he’s like, ‘I’m sorry, you have to either VW or keep going.’ And I’m like, ‘OK, I’m not ready to go home.’”
She continued, explaining that she wanted to make it to the end of the show.
“I wasn’t one that wanted to just sign up for the show and get the paycheck on the first day, you know what I mean? I wanted to challenge myself as much as I could, and this is a once in a lifetime opportunity and the mirror room part of it, I wanted to get to that,” she explained. “I thought that it would be farther along, but because of what happened to me, they pulled me in and I got to really connect on a human level with Billy [Billingham] and Q [Jovon Quarles].”
The celebrity added that everyone saw that she was “giving a hundred percent – even though my hundred percent was not as great as the profession athletes and Carey Hart.”
If you missed it, one of the competitors ruptured their breast implants while filming the show.
