So, I had to take advantage of this and participate although my preparation was not perfect.”
With the IJF Worlds coming up end of August preparations for this important event are on schedule for the Argentinian who is a physician. “It will be a hectic period. I will go on training camp in Japan and have to juggle work as well, but I’m looking forward to the event,” Paula smiles.
