Angonese sets a PR on day 2, but her body gives out

Manon Angonese had a grueling second day at the competition. The volume was lower than her body is used to and her nervous system was more fatigued than she wanted to admit, as she writes in a post on Instagram.

She still produced measurable results: a PR on the 10 kilometers in 48 minutes and a bench press of 96 kilograms, just one kilo below her all-time best. During the final event of the day, her body gave out completely.

Angonese puts her performance in a personal context. She points out that she lost someone two weeks ago and wonders whether it is already a miracle that she showed up at the start line at all. She deliberately leaves the question open.

She competes again tomorrow. Follow her original post via her Instagram account @manon_thewhiteshark for updates.
