Sport and the "other life"
After "Focus" on Sunday night TSR1 is to News round-SME (http://www.actu-pme.ch) published an article on the conversion of elite athletes. Certainly, this issue concerns the media. However, it is primarily in life to try to be happy and to fend for a living. If sport has become a profession for some, is a way, why not? As if the athletes, who must be exemplary in many ways, were not allowed to change his mind? The elite athlete is often nothing more than a passion for sports, his talent level or drove under the spotlight. Thus his results and his moods are the thank you public. The public who "owns" the champions and allows the judge .... taken too early retirement, paternity bad performance, a divorce too premature, a ridiculous comeback, not strong enough, etc., etc.. AND THEN? I always remember one evening in August 2006, entering my car just after finishing 11th in Triathlon World Championships, I fall on the peak of a new sports radio Lausanne, and I hear: " This 11th place at the world championships is it for Magali Di Marco, mean the end of their careers? " ..... I
flabbergasted! Since I returned to competition in 2004, I did not order to hear: "But eventually you'll stop when, for good?"
Today I am happy with my choice, I do not regret my compromise, which allowed me to be fulfilled in many ways. At each one to find his way, the trick is not to feel embittered.
