As athletes, our job is to train and compete.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We are training as hard as all athletes in other countries.
Every day, we as athletes face several challenges during the training process, and it is imperative that we approach each situation carefully and with continued precision.
The most important part of this is to prepare the athlete for life in general and then be able to compete.
I train and prepare for every contest the same so I can compete to the best of my abilities.
We train and work so hard in our sport, we would be nothing less than a warrior. Day in, day out, this is our life. It's everything. The Olympic dream.
I would say that one of the hardest things for an athlete, and really anybody of any profession, is that we create our identity in what we do.
For every athlete, it is very important to be able to engage in their favorite thing, give all the best in training, performing in competitions, defending the honor of the motherland.
Our athletes are our heroes.
I think being an athlete prepares you for more things than people give us credit for.
I think we can be competitive on and off the field and create a model where our athletes are scholars and learners, too.
