Some time ago I read somewhere that you started swimming just after your 2001 accident as a rehab activity.Had you ever swum before this? Massimo:Well let's put it this way: yes, in 2001 on the rehab I was advised to swim, but I only started to swim regularly in 2004, when I finished cycling.My rehab adviser was a triathlete and thanks to him I started triathlon as a new career opportunity.The only other sport I did was gymnastics at the age of 8, which I did for two years.
Congratulations on your Ironman Florida 3rd place. Would you tell us more about the race?
