00:00I'm very excited to see the stories the others tell.
00:11My story is a bit particular, a bit sad, but it brings together all the values of sports and of humans,
00:21especially since we've lost a bit in the last few years.
00:25I have to say that I haven't improved.
00:27I didn't improve at all.
00:28I broke the Italian record last year, 17.75.
00:31I only managed to do 64, I could have done more.
00:34We won the bronze medal.
00:35I was especially excited because it was my first time wearing the Zurra shirt.
00:39It was my rebirth in high-level sports.
00:44Reaching this goal was the least I could do for Italy and for all the people who helped me along the way.
00:51What are your goals for 2025?
00:54My goals are always the same.
00:55My main rivals are always the same, the Portuguese and the Spanish.
01:02They are the top two in the Olympics, so my goal will always be to beat them.
01:08To break the world record.
01:10I've already said that I only have one year to break it.
01:14Maurizio Nato is my best friend here in Italy.
01:17He's my mentor, my nutritionist, my coach, my masseur.
01:22He does everything.
01:24He's always been there in my life.
01:27Reaching this medal, like he did in 2012, was a wonderful thing.
01:33It's said that it's fate.
01:35We had to meet.
01:37This time he passed it to me because he's a bronze medalist.
01:40It's not a big deal.
01:42But to have this achievement as a goal, it's exciting.
01:51August 9th is a day that we will never forget.
