Hi everybody.

I’m very bad on keeping this home page and I’m sorry about this. I like to inform you that I’m training to try to be in shape for next olimpic season. My injoury is going well and I can train preatty good right now. So… keep in touch everybody!

Finally I’m going to partecipate to a World Cup this season. I’m on my way to Kolomna. I don’t think I will compete high level because of several problems that still persist on me, but I will try to do my best just to test me. Anyway no stress at all on my result. This is just a point to know from where to start to.

Today I got a nice different training. I planned sprint training, and I found some training-partner: Simone Berazzo, the driver of Italia1 bobsleigh and his coach Tartaglia. I’m so tired right now! I learn some new exsercise and did some very fast run! Tomorrow I’m going to have weight training with Simone, but this is something more normal as we live in the same town and go in the same weight room since several years already. It’s really usefull and more fun to have training with no-confident partner. It helps to find new motivation.

Time goes by and I’m always home. I’m enjoying it anyway, no driving, no packing… Training is going on, I began inlining often, but my pain insn’t that happy about the position and it’s controlling my volume of work.

In the meantime I began to collaborate with some friends in different project, www.sportavventuraday.it and www.unico1.org and I’m planning a lot with them, hopefully we can do something good for people.

After a very short holiday in 5 Terre with my friend Becky, I came back home getting ready for training camp. It began today, but I’m not there, who knows why. Training is going on by myself, not so much volume as it should be because of several pains between leg and gluteus, but it’s much better than it was.

Raining, raining, raining…… it’s always raining!! How is it possible to have good training when it’s always wet?

Right now I’m doing both athlete and coach. As possible I train with my sister Paola to help her a little bit before she get to sick of training alone; and let say she is pretty good. We bought a bike and she comes with me… till when we meet a hill and she starts asking “when are we going back?”. But she stay right behind me till when I allowed her to go. I’m pround of her… (just don’t tell her).

It’s been a long time since last time I posted. I’ve been traveling a lot for several reason and wasn’t thinking to everything I needed to do. But finally here I am.

Pain of my leg isn’t finish and because of this me and the doctor decided to try to do medical staff instead of training. I lost May training camp and will loose also June training camp because he thinks it’s better if I just keep on training just easy. I had some new doctor and right now they think my problems could be because of my back and they need to understand if it’s real or not. That means new visit, new travels, new exercices probably and see what happen.

Well, my feeling is I’m just so tired to feel pain and I really would like to train and just feel muscle pain!! Anyway I know I have good feed-back with all my training life and even if I’m loosing time in some way, I know I have my chances to be good next winter. So, just hope everything will turn to the best way!!

ISU World Single Distances Speed Skating Championships

Nagano/Japan

March 6 - 9

Entries/Results

I’ve been in Nagano lot of times already, and it never really looks different. This year snow welcome us and temperature is very different compared to the sunny warmy air of Italy. I’m skating every morning and taking a lot of rest. There still few days to go before the races begin next Thursday with 1500m. I really want to skate also 500m before 1000m and I hope my leg will allow me to skate everything and fast obviously!!!! The leg is going really good. The physio Max bandages it everyday so that every muscle is more safe from injury while I push as strong as I can.

Wednesday is a travel day. A very long travel will bring me to Nagano to finish this season. Next week I will finally race. I’m so happy about it. Right now I still don’t know what distances I will skate, but I hope I can be fast.
