An impressive picture this Sunday on the podium in the 3,000m individual pursuit in the C5 category. The winner a few minutes earlier against her compatriot Heïdi Gaugain, Marie Patouillet suffered from anxiety when she climbed to the first step of the podium.
Upon hearing her name, a 36-year-old French woman asked to be accompanied by a member of the French team and even seemed to lose consciousness. Marie Patouillet even had to sit on a chair before playing French music.
Standing, but accompanied by silver medalist Heïdi Gaugain and bronze medalist, New Zealander Nicole Murray, the Olympic champion is very visible.
This painting will remain as one of the highlights of these Paralympic Games Paris 2024, especially since Marie Patouillet won this title although it was not a favorite to Gaugain.
“I’m likely to have vagal depression”
After this podium, the Paralympic champion returns to what happened. “I think I tried beyond my own abilities. I have extremely strong resolve, sometimes a little too strong. I am very excited to experience my last stages of music without regret that every meter, this fun evening, has to be excited,” he explained on the microphone of France Télévisions.
“I’m likely to have vagal anxiety. Already, in the corridor, I thought it would be complicated, I tried to ventilate myself except that I felt in my legs, my hands, it sounded in my ears… At some point, I have to say. that I can’t, I don’t feel well. Otherwise, we risk discomfort and maybe even injury,” the female doctor continued from the song. “I thought he was gone, I told myself ‘Management, management’ then I realized that I would not last long. »
