#60 Eygló Sturludóttir: "I didn't want to have an excuse"
Description
Weightlifting rising star, Eygló Fanndal Sturludóttir, is back on the podcast, now as a European Champion! So much has happened since our last chat in Episode #13, and in this episode, we discuss it all.
We talk about the disappointment of just missing the Olympics, how she came back to win the European U23 title while taking best lifter of the meet, her 4th place finish at Worlds, and finally, her incredible victory at the European Championships in April. She achieved all of this while juggling the intense demands of medical school.
Eygló also shares the story of a major injury that happened only days before the Europeans and why she kept it a secret. We explore the pressure of increased attention, how she navigates the fear of failure, and what it truly takes to perform when everything is on the line.
You can't miss this masterclass in mindset from one of the strongest athletes out there.
