When cutting the finish line of Darfo Boario Terme Monica Trinca Colonel is increduloushas just arrived second to the Italian championship and does not seem true to her. He gave everything, he is exhausted, but he is happy, he did not win the tricolor shirt but reached his special goal. Just this morning he had reassured us about his physical condition, nothing broken after the spectacular fall to the Italian Chrono championships, just a few blows, but the desire for revenge was very strong.
«It was a very demanding race, both for the heat and for the route, they were many curves and exemption suitable for my characteristics I started with good sensations, but I certainly wouldn’t have expected such a implication. I knew that the UAE team would attack and therefore I found myself ready to respond to all their attacks. At a certain point Elisa accelerated, I looked back and there was only Eleonora Ciabocco on my wheel, the others were all back, that was the right time. The detachment little by little has increased, I was in the running and I had to give entirely. When the Longo started there was not much to do, I only tried to manage me the best, but Arriving second behind her for me is equivalent to a victory. I admit it, I have not yet made what happened »he tells us after the podium, he looks at us fixed in the eyes almost to ask us confirmation of his second place” yes monica, it’s all true “we repeat them several times.
The realization of what happened comes shortly after when we ask them if just two years ago it would have imagined to reach such a goal, it is at that moment that Monica burst into a liberating cry. “Two years ago I worked in a shop in Livigno and only at the idea of being an athlete not only would I not have believed it, but I literally would have laughed in the face of anyone who had told me Instead, everything has become reality, it is my dream and it is happening. I dedicate this milestone to my boyfriend, he was the first to believe in my potential, to spur me not to give up, it is for my family, for the people who have always supported me and for my grandparents who unfortunately are no longer there, they would have liked to see their granddaughter cyclist for them “Monica tells us, now the emotion has taken over, it is the sincere relief of a girl who has now literally immersed us inside. As an athlete for beloved in work breaks, Valtellinese has entered Olympus and his exponential growth is the demonstration that ready to challenge the greats. His next appointment will be the Giro d’Italia and right in the first stage in line, he reaches the Aprica in his Valtellina. Monica is ready to scream present.
