The blue had fractured the tibial plateau on January 31st. Wednesday will be at the downhill World Cup finals in Lenzerheide
“The next day, while I was walking under the Bergamo sun for the first time completely without crutches, I dialed the number of Dr. Schonhubert:“ Herbert, can I make it to the finals? ”. It was Tuesday. It was March 2nd. And it was the first time since January 31 that a desire has once again harbored a desire in my heart ”. Thus ends the long post on Instagram, entitled “Per aspera ad astra” (“Through the roughness up to the stars”) with which Sofia Goggia confirms the return to the races.

Desire in the heart
—
Sofia describes what she thought when asked when she was about to undergo osteopathic treatment: “What do you want? I replied: Nothing, Paolo. I don’t want anything. I didn’t go into the conversation but inside I knew it: I was lying, perhaps even to myself. Yes. I had a tremendous need to return to desire something in my heart, because life without a true desire that guides us, whether it is a person, a goal to reach, a goal, or the same star is not life indeed, it is a disaster, and I had the need to get out of the latter and that stagnant limbo in which I had run into and in which I no longer recognized myself ”.
