Many blamed the water in the Seine for Mislawchuk’s upchucking as the pre-race training events and the men’s race were postponed because of high levels of E. coli bacteria found in the …
Tyler Mislawchuck, 29, who crossed the finish line in 9th place, says he was in the running for a medal halfway through the final leg of the race Wednesday when he began to fade.
“I have no ‘what ifs’ on the day, I went for it, it was absolutely everything. I vomited 10 times after the race … it got hot in the last laps,” Mislawchuk said. “The whole time I was telling myself 20 more seconds. From about two km in I was saying 20 more seconds for the rest of your life, and I did that until 6 km. Then I kept doing it, but I ran out of a bit of steam. Unfortunately, the race is 10 km, not 6 km, and the last four km was an eternity.”for Mislawchuk’s upchucking as the pre-race training events and the men’s race were postponed because of high levels of E. coli bacteria found in the river.
After the races, some triathletes spoke out, detailing their disgusting experiences of racing in the Seine.
