The quarantine of Michelle Gisin and Luca De Aliprandini is also a particular quarantine, distant but united by a relationship that, in this period, sees them forced to not see each other. The Swiss champion is in fact stuck in the family home in Engelberg, her Trentino boyfriend in the house where they usually live (a few months a year ...) in Riva del Garda; 214 km as the crow flies told by Michelle to Mathias Germann, journalist of the "Blick" who was told about this moment lived by one of the couples of the white circus. “We were looking forward to being together after the races, after meeting for eight days since last November - reveals Gisin - The situation is this, but fortunately our families are fine and we cannot complain. There are those who experience much worse dramas. " The gold of the combined PyeongChang 2018 continues: "It was a strong emotional blow to know that we cannot reach it, but at this moment it is not allowed in any way and I want to say that I consider all the decisions taken by the authorities to be right. Luca himself is living alone, does not see the family and leaves the house practically once every two weeks ". And what is Michelle Gisin doing to keep fit? “I run alone and do strength exercises. Nobody knows when we can go back to skiing, but I want to be ready even if I'm not too optimistic about the timing. I also read a lot, including a 6000-page fantasy series, and cook to my father's delight ... Last season? I lived it on a roller coaster, especially in speed I alternated good races with real disasters, but the secret to staying at a high level is skiing as in training, without thinking too much ".
