On the race day morning, I didn't rack my bike DNF at the C race, you feel nothing, just like a bad day at training. DNF at the B race, that's alight, it could be just missing a time trial to assess where I am. DNF at the A race, you hope it's not the truth, in reality you feel sour. The illness happened 4 weeks before the race, I know it was not going to work if I couldn't recover in one week, at the end I was bed rest for 3 weeks due to the flu infection into my inner ears... I pull out, that's alright, G was preparing for this race as well, so do most of the Team Sonic as well. G caught flu after me and keep coughing for whole month, we try hard to get it recovered. On race day morning, everybody is ready, G is ready, but she was a bit nervous, unusually nervous, she never looks like that before, gun started, I was standing at the side of the lake and watching, I saw the crowd start swimming then I moved, and then I saw G already back to the starting
