The Olympic and World Champion in charge has decided to take a year out to try to catch your breath after two seasons rather challenging. The original ventiseinne Maidstone & nbsp; for & has ograve; wanted to emphasize the BBC that it is still a temporary withdrawal as keen to recur to start gates of the Games in Pyeongchang 2018 to defend the 'Olympic gold in Sochi 2014. & nbsp; Objective demanding that if hit would lead the' English right in the history of this discipline, since at the time no athlete of the sport & egrave; He succeeded in imposing in two consecutive Olympics. & nbsp;
"Immediately after the victory of the race Olympic Sochi not & egrave; was easy to find new motivation to go forward - said Yarnold to public television English, adding - but then in my head began to make his way the thought of wanting to complete the Grand Slam success in the skeleton, cos & Igrave; I am committed to win the world title as well. "
Goal that is more like Lizzy & ugrave; commonly called, reached last March in Winterberg proving clearly the most & ugrave; strong skeletonista circuit. "Only in the season ended I realized how much I was really tired and cos & Igrave; I decided to take this time to stop. It will not be & agrave; easy to look the enemy race, but I think it's fair for me to take a moment's break to recharge the batteries and return on the ice with new motivation. "
According sabbatical to un''altra big skeleton world, Shelley Rudman, and after the birth of the second daughter Sofia has decided to extend the period of maternity & agrave; for another 12 months. Permanent withdrawal instead to mate Shelley, Kristan Bromley who at the ripe et & agrave; forty-three years he decided to hang up his skeleton to the proverbial nail.
The 'original athlete dell''Lancashire & nbsp; closes a twenty-year career that' devoted to sporting merit and especially academics as "Doctor Ice". Bromley fact boasts a university curriculum that has few equals in the world of sport, having earned a doctorate all''Universit & agrave; Nottingham & nbsp; a thesis engineering emblematic title, & nbsp; "The factors that influence the performance of a skeleton."
Kristan later with his brother Richard has created the Bromley & nbsp; Technologies Ltd., un''azienda specializes in making some of the best skeleton in circulation. On his sleigh in fact many British athletes have achieved outstanding results as Amy Williams in Salt Lake City in 2002 gave the UK a historic medal 'gold, not to mention the countless successes girlfriend Rudman, silver in Turin in 2006 and gold at the World Championships Sankt Moritz in 2013.
Next will come all''aspetto entrepreneurial Bromley & agrave; She remembered for his sporting achievements. It should not be forgotten in fact, that "Dr. Ice" & egrave; It was the first athlete ever to win the so-called Triple Crown skeleton or: & nbsp; European title, world title and the World Cup in the same season. & nbsp;
Besides Bromley home Great Britain is noted un''altra end career. This is the ventissettenne Rose McGrandle that at the end of his best season ever decided to say enough with the competitions. The skeletonista stationed in Bath last year after a training period in the lower divisions, highlighted by the success nell''Intercontinental Cup 2012, had managed to carve out a place in the competitive & nbsp; A team competing in English for the first time up an entire season World Cup. Despite the poor attitude to the main tour skeleton, & nbsp; & nbsp McGrandle, finished in seventh place overall, even going up to the third step of the podium for the second race in Igls also valid as the European Championship.
Despite the 'large number of retired athletes, the big boss of the British skeleton Andi Schmid proves by extremely positive for the upcoming season, "We have worked hard in recent years and I know deeply the potential of our teams, so I'm convinced that next year there will still be the English athletes are ready to fight for a place on the podium. " The words of Schmid are thrown at random in fact, if we run through the field departing the junior categories there are many British athletes ready on the launch pad, not to mention that last year & nbsp; Laura Deas & nbsp; has conquered two podiums in & nbsp; World Cup ( Calgary and St. Moritz) finishing in fifth place overall. & nbsp;
So Britain is renewed but continues to remain a major power in the sport.
