The Banco Santander ambassador, who this Sunday supported the Madrid Women’s Race, continues with the recovery of her left knee and today she had to content herself with starting the Women’s Race in support of its 18,000 participants who dyed the streets of Madrid pink, with Eli Pinedo and Anne Igartiburu, forming part of the banking team.
“I am one of those who always try to get positive things out of difficult things or obstacles that are placed in front of us. Although it is true that it was a very hard injury because it occurred just under two months before the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, the positive is that the following Games are only two and a half years away, therefore I have very little left and really looking forward to Paris, “he commented.
“Since I found out that my knee was broken, both the crusader and the two menisci,” he added, “my head could no longer think of Tokyo and, therefore, every day I think of Paris 2024 and my goal is to get back to another gold medal ”.
The Huelva rider said she was “in a pretty good mood” after four and a half months of recovery. “Although I know that I still have enough left, I am encouraged. I go little by little, seeing sensations of how my knee is doing and waiting for the moment to compete again.” For his return, he stressed, “I have no date. It is until the body says and above all that the knee is prepared, “he said.
“Thank you very much to all the runners for their participation in a race that means so much to us women. Thank you for your presence and especially that you enjoy this wonderful and beautiful race. For me it is a pleasure to have been able to be here giving my support ”, ended Carolina Marín.
