It was a terrible speech, she managed to put down her co-competitors by saying "the race came down to who wanted kona more and I think it is me", then she put down the race by saying "glad my family is here cause that means more then any race prize" Obvious, your family means more, but I think it could have been structured a bit differently. And who is she to say who wanted to win more Both her and the 2nd and 3rd place girls passed me on the run, she was looking strong, but I have to say the other 2 were gutting it out too.
