OLYMPIC DREAM
She says qualifying for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo made a childhood dream come true. "It's every athlete's dream to participate in the Olympic Games. I'm making a dream come true and I'm very happy, especially in the 10km event, which is one of the most difficult tests in swimming. It's not only challenging, it's just that is available to 25 girls around the world, every four years. It's a pride to be among these 25 girls. Achieving this goal the way I did and the work that was developed, was a great achievement." (slbenfica.pt, 25 Jun 2021)
