Lionel your race in one sentence - got dropped on the swim and had to go too hard to make up all the time on the bike and blew up on the run, need to take a step away and re-evaluate what went wrong

Cam you biked real strong and then... kept it together for a 2:50 marathon and podium finish

Sarah True this was the hottest day in Kona for you yet - played it very conservatively today and actually hit all the aid stations, happy with a top 10 everything considered

Daniela what is next - doing the men’s race next year

Andy Potts will you be back?

Lionel your race in one sentence My injury was the best thing to protect myself from myself, and I want to congratulate second place who really gave me the gift of finding the best in myself.

Cam you biked real strong and then...I really opened a cam of whoop ass but felt the fatigue from Italy set in around 25km on the run.

Sarah True this was the hottest day in Kona for you yet and yet you did not faint and blame a spectator for yet another spectacular implosion.

Daniela what is next ...yes, the men's race. This gets boring.

Andy Potts will you be back?
