Train, Train and Study

I've been here for 1 month now. unfortunatley it's still cold and i couldn't sail much. But that doesn't mean i haven't been doing much. No I've been training in the gym everyday and gainend 3.5 kilos witch is much more then my coaches expected so i'm heading in the right direction! And yes even when your not at school, doing an olympic campaign you have to study, Guess what sailing rules, situations, terms and tacticks. Well that was it for now my next update will be after my first big championship in the beginning of october.

I ve arrived on Tuesday 18th of August after a flight of 10 hours. After that, I had to travel 5 hours by car to Mar del Plata, the place where I am going to train the upcoming year and going to be living with the family of my coach. The next day I went to check out the club and discover Mar del Plata. It’s a very nice club with a lot of sailing boots, a swimming pool and a great gym to train. For now I’m training more in the gym and less on the water, because its winter in Argentina now and so it’s very cold. The upcoming weeks I’m going to be training for a championship that is going to be held in Buenos Aires.
