In the last climb, it was really difficult. My body dropped me, but I never gave up afterwards. Until the summit, I focused on my tempo, my values (on its meter). Then I had to make the best descent of my life. The whole team worked so hard during the week that it is really difficult to give them up. Overseas to bear me.
I had to make the best descent of my life while trying not to die several times in the pins, and I was able to do the junction. (Does she think she can still keep the yellow jersey to the end?) I don't know. It depends on how I get back tonight and tonight. We see day after day. My teammate Sarah (gigant) is really in good shape. I think she feels very comfortable and relaxed since the start of the Tour. I think there will be a fireworks tomorrow “concludes Kim short at the microphone of the organization.
