At a time when the
temperature takes a dip in mountainous Nepal, a teenaged swimmer makes her way
to Thailand to maintain her training regime through the winter. Sofia Gadegaard
Shah trains in Nepal during the warm season and then in Thanyapura in Phuket in
winter. "I do train in Nepal until the time the season allows it, as
during the winters it becomes impossible to continue with the training regime because
of the absence of heated pools." "Thanyapura, where I am training
now, has quite a good one and has triathlon training facilities and an amazing
swimming programme." Shah has been a member of the Nepal swimming team on
four occasions and her next target is qualification for the Rio 2016 Olympics.Unperturbed
that Nepal is yet to make a mark in swimming, the 17-year-old participated in
the women's 50m, 100m and 200m freestyle events of the ongoing 12th FINA World
Swimming Championships (25m) in Doha, Qatar. "I want to make it to the
Olympics in 2016 for Nepal but I know it's going to be a difficult task.
Comparatively, we lack some of the best infrastructure and to qualify one need
to do it on the basis of rankings," Shah continued.
