Aline Rocha: We Must Evolve

Описание: In this episode of Making It to Milan, co-host Ashley Cains speaks with Aline Rocha, a Brazilian Paralympian who competes in both the Winter and Summer Paralympic Games. Aline represents Brazil as a sitting skier in cross-country and biathlon, and as a wheelchair racer on the track—making her a soon-to-be five-time Paralympian. She reflects on starting wheelchair racing in 2010 after being introduced to Paralympic sport by her husband and coach, Fernando, competing at Rio 2016, and then becoming Brazil’s first woman to compete at a Winter Paralympic Games in 2018 after learning to ski in Sweden. Aline shares the challenges of training for snow in a tropical country, balancing two demanding sports, leaning on psychological preparation to manage pressure, and focusing her sights on a long-awaited Paralympic medal in Milano Cortina.
