California, USA. In spring 2020, as rumors of an eventual postponement of the Olympics to 2021 loomed, athletes were left in limbo. What do you do when your season is put in question and they reschedule the goal you have been working towards for more than four years? You go back to work. At least that’s what Kate Courtney of the SCOTT- SRAM racing team has done. The uncertainty of 2020 hasn’t slowed her down. Her dreams may be on hold, but her determination and dedication to be the best are not.
“This period of time has been a real realization for me and so many others, that the future is pretty uncertain and I think when we start to acknowledge that as people, we can really focus on and enjoy the present a bit more and recognize that a lot of the value is in the process of pursuing the goal. (…)
If you ask me, do I believe I will stand on the Olympic start-line, the answer is without a doubt: Yes.”
