track championship

The track is already done. During this three days, i raced 300m time trial and the relay. For the first distance, i made one mistake in one corner and i pay it directly : no qualify for 0.03sec. After, i concentrated again on the relay with a better chance of medal. We passed the heats and semifinals well and we were like favourites. In final, we started first and stayed at this position till 3 laps to go. We lost the head at the baddest moment. In three laps, we were third and fourth and fifth and finally disqualified for a foul in the last corner. Now, concentration on the road with the 500m on wednesday and the marathon on friday.
For the French team, the track was good. We get 2 golds with Yann (10km points) and Alexis (15km élimination), 2 silvers with Nicolas (500m) and Alexis (1000m).
I hope it will continue like this on te road and to participate more at the collect of medals....
This three days were also interesting with new faces of skaters who are strong. First of them is the colombian Pedro Causil, still junior, he broke the 300m time trial senior world record in 24'53 (9'37 for first 100m). Next year, he will be senior and he will be a stronger sprinter. An other colombian, Andrez Felipe Munoz, who came back at worlds this year after winning in junior in 2004 and 2005, severals golds. He won the 500m meters. One of the big event of the track is also the absence of Joey Mantia. He didn't do well on 300m and was ill the second day. He didn't recover enough the third day and wasn't in shape Now we wait the road to see if it's coming back or not. For my part, i hope no...lol. One less one the 500m, it' always good.
