'No Regrets, Vomited 10 Times' - Canadian Triathlete Tyler Mislawchuk With The Quote Of The Olympics After Leaving It All On The Street During His Race
[Source] - Canada's Tyler Mislawchuk, 29, was seen being physically sick on live TV after finishing ninth in a time of 1hr 39min 41sec.
And he later revealed he had actually vomited 10 times as the brutal race took its toll. 'I didn’t come here to come top 10 but I gave it everything I had,' he told Canadian media afterwards.' I went for it, I have no regrets - vomited 10 times.'
This right here is the Olympic spirit. I know you most likely aren't happy about a top-10 finish when you're an Olympian. You're focused on getting a medal, but still top-10 in the world in anything is fucking impressive. Threw up after the race and then delivered the line. No regrets, he yakked 10 times during the race. That's what it takes to finish top-10 so be it. Although, can't be surprised since he had to swim in the poop-filled Seine River
Combine that with it being 86 degrees in France today and yeah, you'll get some puke. Hell, you go try to complete a triathlon in any temperature and we're all puking. I don't care how good of an athlete you are, doing all that work and that speed and you better be puking. Dan Campbell is proud of him when he finds out.
I need to know how much of the puke was in the Seine though. That's the logical place to throw up. I assume most of it wasn't while he was biking. No one throws up on a bike. But swimming in E. coli and shit-filled water? That'll do it. Oh and then go run a bunch. Triathlon runners are some of the craziest people in the world to me. Just combine three exercises that most people hate doing and then fly around while doing it. Go practice it just for the chance to make the Olympics.
No regrets though. He might go puke an 11th time to prove a point.
