“I wanted to get back into that competitiveness and that competition arena and so someone shared about these Masters Games and so I looked into it and I thought that looks really lovely, I would like to try it and I joked around with some past friends and said: I think I’m going to do this Masters Games thing and they were like we’ll get into it too!”

“Through sport you learn self discipline, work hard on a target, on a goal you want to reach and that also helps for your career or for your work.”

“It’s impossible to let go, once you taste this adventure, when you come to these countries and compete and have these feelings and podium and everything. You just want it to continue.”
