TonIn the end, bodybuilder Laura Lindeman apparently missed the Olympic medal. After reaching the finish line in eighth place on Tuesday, the third place in the 2020 World Cup, after a promising start, was 2 minutes and 48 seconds behind Bermuda’s first Olympic champion Flora Duffy. The silver medal was British world champion Georgia Taylor Brown, and the bronze medal was American Katie Zafires.
In her last training camp, Lindemann from Potsdam simulated a hot and humid environment in a tent. On the day of the game in Japan, the weather finally showed a completely different side. The morning in Odaiba Marine Park is continuous rain and pleasant temperature. The race was postponed for 15 minutes due to the accumulation of water in the finish area.
Seventh place after swimming
Lindemann was unmoved, after swimming for 1.5 kilometers, he ranked seventh and first in the water. Especially in the backcourt, when countless female riders fell on the slippery road, the seven-man team around Lindemann forcefully made a preliminary decision on the 40-kilometer cycling race.
The 25-year-old young man drives tactics and tactics on technically demanding tracks, barely participating in pace work and saving energy. Lindemann, ranked second, entered the final ten-kilometer race at the same time as the leader Zafires. Duffy caused a huge increase in speed in the early stages, and Lindemann was unable to keep up. Zaferes was soon out of reach, Taylor-Brown following behind. On the last lap, other contestants overtook, and the medals they wanted were out of reach.
