You have collected countless titles during the past years. Which ones are you especially proud of?
Nadine: As a German rider, I’m especially happy about this year’s German championship title at Cross Country Eliminator. The podium result at the 2013 UCI Mountain Bike World Cup in Albstadt and winning the international cross country race in Muttenz/Basel are all highlights for me.
When have you been in Bormio for the first time?
Nadine: My first time in Bormio was during a photo shoot about four years ago. Shortly afterwards during a road bike training session I passed through Bormio, while I did some altitude training with the national team. Both times the region has left a very positive impression on me.
Why have you decided to train in Bormio?
Nadine: As I said, I liked Bormio immediately. Its scenery is stunning and the training facilities are perfect. In addition, I feel comfortable there and that is really important if you are a testimonial for a region. Of course, the fact that I am half Italian also fits.

What is special about Bormio in your opinion?
Nadine: Training is important but the recovery time is also crucial, so for me I enjoy the relaxation and regeneration facilities that Bormio offers. Taking a bath in the thermal spas works miracles, it relaxes the muscles and reinvigorates. Another important aspect for training is food and Bormio has some fantastic restaurants.

How can training in Bormio help your preparations for the upcoming season?
Nadine: In the winter I can train by going cross country skiing and taking ski tours. In the summer, the roads are perfect for training and I can also mountain bike or hike in the mountains. Basically, there are many alternatives and each one can help me to achieve my goals.
What are your next big ambitions?
Nadine: In spring I will compete at the Absa Cape Epic in South Africa. This is the hardest MTB stage race in the world and a great challenge. Later in the season I will return to the Cross Country World Cup as well as national and international races. I will try to prepare in the best way for it, to live up to my success of this season.
