Here it is again, seven months and twenty-six days after that December 16, 2021 that was black, for Martina Peterlini and the Italian women's slalom.
Second race between the narrow poles on the snows of Valle Aurina, European Cup: 2nd heat and the right knee of the '97 thirty class crashes, with the rupture of the anterior cruciate, collateral and meniscus that will lead to a very long stop. Two surgeries, hours upon hours of physiotherapy, then the recovery plan that comes to life by participating with teammates in athletic rallies between Formia and, at the beginning of August, Courmayeur.
"After a lot, but a lot of work ... I'm back", announced today Martina on social media, finally on the snow almost eight months after the most serious injury of her young career, which was emerging at levels decidedly important between the final of the 2020/21 season, just think of Jasna's 7th place, and the start of the next one, then stopped from that day in Valle Aurina.
The goal can only be Levi, or the two opening slaloms of the 2022/23 World Cup vintage, on the weekend of 19-20 November, for the reference girl in the blue slalom. It will be necessary to give her time to return to her level, on the other hand, after an injury like the crusader, it usually takes another season to find herself. The determination and quality to make it are certainly not lacking in Martina.
