Hannah Snellgrove in Peak Condition Ahead of Semaine Olympique Francaise

Hannah Snellgrove is gearing up for the Semaine Olympique Francaise with a newfound confidence and determination as she prepares for her Olympic debut this summer. The 33-year-old ILCA 6 sailor made the strategic decision to skip the Trofeo Princesa Sofia event in Mallorca in order to focus on a consistent training block leading up to the prestigious French Olympic Week.

Snellgrove, who finished 11th at the World Sailing Championships last year to secure a spot for Team GB, has been working tirelessly to improve her physical condition after battling a back injury in 2022. Despite the setbacks, she has been hitting personal bests in the gym and is feeling stronger than ever as she heads into the crucial period before the Olympics.

The upcoming event in France will serve as a major test for Snellgrove, as she competes against the best sailors in the world who have already qualified for the Olympics. She sees this as an opportunity to gauge her progress and gain valuable experience before the summer games in Marseille.

With her sights set on performing at her best in August, Snellgrove is focused on fine-tuning her skills and building confidence in her abilities. She acknowledges the challenges she has faced in the past but is determined to make the most of this opportunity to showcase her talent on the world stage.

As she continues to push herself to new heights, Snellgrove is proving that age is just a number and that with hard work and dedication, anything is possible.
