I was an athlete. And I proved I didn't win just because I was pretty. I was good, too.
From Katarina Witt
The desire to really compete again has been there for a long time.
It's not like I didn't do anything for 10 years and chose a new profession. I've been on the ice a lot. I'm not an outsider.
I don't want to compete. I want to skate for the joy. I get so nervous in competition. I get always sick. I had pressures enough in my life from skating.
I was the very first athlete in East Germany allowed to go professional.
I started the class late. The teacher said I would have to learn as much in half a year that the others learned in a year. I did it.
