Athletes from Havana will take part in the Olympic Games in Tokyo

Leydi Laura Moya and Lester Ders , who already have their tickets for the Tokyo Olympic meeting, have planned  to get involved in Two World Cups, being  Bulgaria the venue. As it is said in information published by IJT they will go there next April. Jose Ricardo Figueroa, another Havana citizen will travel with them, he has the intention of getting involved in the pent athletes group taking part in the Japanese meeting.

 It will be a hard task for Figueroa to get the chance for the Olympics and he knows that. Nevertheless, almost certainly, that will be the reason to do his best to achieve it and there are two main elements to do it. The first is to make the most of every training session. The second one is related to the psychological aspect, which is essential in the moment of the competition and cannot be neglected.

On the other hand Jose Ricardo is not an inexpert. This statement shows the fact of getting, the first place in the mixed relay race in the Central American Games of Veracruz in 2014, and the second place in the relay competition, just to mention two examples. In 2018, more recently, he got the fourth place in the individual competition in the Central American Games of Barranquilla and in 2019 he won the silver medal in the mixed relay race in the Pan-American Games in Lima.

The biggest debt of the Cuban athletes for the next world competitions is in horseback riding, specialty out of training since two weeks now. It is in a kind of bubble at the Pools Complex Baragua.

In relation to a statement issued in JIT, ¨training sessions for fencing and shooting are done in a suitable room on the top floor of the building, race is trained around the building and swimming is trained in the dive pool.

Tokyo is just around the corner and getting a prize in that event is really hard. However, as we always say, competition is the moment of receiving a trophy or not. The most important thing so far, is to get the best training and why not? try to have three pent athletes in the land of samurais.
