Asja Zenere knows what it means to suffer, on the other hand she has already gone through her still young career. Of course, the sudden stop that hit her last December 15, when she was going to take her first high level victory, in the second European Cup giant on the snow of Andalo (after the first two podiums of her career on the continental circuit in a super start to the season), it was a heavy blow for the '96 class from Vicenza, who moved from Enego to Barzio, in Valsassina, for reasons of heart and with the Sci Club Lecco who now supports her for training . We speak of one of the potentially most interesting athletes in the blue landscape, so much so that a few days after that damned day in Trentino, he would have made his debut in the World Cup in the giant of Courchevel; the impact with the pole and the subsequent fall meant for Zenere crash on his right knee, practically destroyed and rebuilt by a luminary on the subject such as Prof Mariani, who operated it at Villa Stuart. In July, Asja should be able to put her skis back on, although the first meeting with her group, the European Cup, will only come later: "I often dreamed that day, that race and that pain I felt at the beginning - Zenere confessed to Gianmario Bonzi - I always look for the positive side to start again and therefore I thought that it was better to have happened in my best moment, rather than in a phase of crisis or effort because it would have been harder to go back up. The World Cup, despite the injury, now I see it closer. " Giardiniera and painter by passion, the 23 year old from Vicenza had to live with Covid-19 for ... two reasons: “In the first period I was unable to do physiotherapy and the knee became inflamed, since athletic training had already begun. Now it is better, while the wedding that was scheduled for June 19 has been postponed ". Like its landing in the dream cup, but it's only a matter of time.
