Das englischsprachige Triathlonportal Slowtwitch führte ein Interview mit dem IRONMAN Age Group Weltmeister Max Renko

ST: After your age group win in Kona and the third fastest amateur time, are you still on cloud 9?

Max: Well I probably never really got up there since I always fall into some sort of post-race depression. You wake up totally FUBAR, that goal towards you were working for months is suddenly gone and you don’t know what’s to come next. Of course, the awards ceremony was great. Being up there with so many great athletes and getting the props put a huge smile on my face and made me realized what I had achieved. But it wasn’t like winning in the lottery, like "hey, whoops, I won! How did that happen?" I had worked very hard for that day.
