"I'm conscious it was obviously an accident, and I'd like to tell you I'm aware of the reaction, and you don't need to send me the links to the blogs out there," Nonino posted on his Instagram, via the Daily Mail. "I'm trying to laugh about it now but immediately afterwards I felt terrible, and I'm thankful to my friends and family for helping me get over what happened a few hours later."

Nonino finished the race in 51.57 seconds, remarkably just .45 seconds shy of his personal best in the distance. But it was apparent that his self-cover slowed him down.
