Biography
Marta Olsbu-Roycelane - Biathlete of Norwegian Nationality, European Champion. Woman's path to success was not easy, because she had suffered from asthma from birth from asthma and other diseases. But the athlete was able to focus on the goal, throwing in the direction of everything minor.Childhood and youth
March Olsbu-Roycelanne was born on December 7, 1990 in the tenol, Norway. Now lives in Froland.
The girl rose on the farm, went to the ski rides with their parents, climbed on the trees together with the elder brother. In the younger school age tried to play handball, but in every way avoided contact with the ball, running forward and backward. In general, I realized that it was not for her.
In the sport came late, until the 9th grade did not even know what biathlon was, and the weakest results showed in the physical culture lessons. For happiness, Marta met the former coach of the National National Rodegor national team, which after completing the career worked with children. The man saw talent in Norwegian and forced to focus on high purposes.
Olsby-Roycelane entered the ski school and left the house. The students themselves were erased and prepared, trained from morning to evening, and in their free time they rushed with snowballs and satisfied comic brawls, whom the girl awaited. She lived in constant stress, lagging behind the peers in studies and training. Mentors considered Mart by mediocrity, not suspecting future successes.
The athlete was allowed to competition, despite Astma - in Norway, this disease was not considered an obstacle. March was such not alone, Teresa Yohaug suffered from the same disease, Hadi Weng and other biathletes. This gave reason to explain the successes of the northern country in the ski racing use of doping, which the Norwegians allegedly accepted under the guise of medication. In fact, drugs helped skiers normally breathe, but did not improve their physical indicators.
