Who are you and what do you do?

I'm Anne, 27 years old and have been living in my adopted home of Hamburg for 8 years. I feel right at home here, found the club I love and started studying in 2013. Speaking of studying. I became a qualified psychologist this year and am now starting my training to become a psychotherapist. In addition, I have had a great love for 23 years: playing hockey. On the hockey field you will always find me with 100% passion and also a lot of emotions..

What does a typical day for you look like?

The alarm usually goes off around 7:30 a.m. Then I take my vitamins, drink a glass of water and my first (very important) coffee with oat milk. Then you usually go to your first training session without having a big breakfast, perhaps with a small snack.
For the past few years, I have been completing my university tasks, studying, drinking coffee or attending seminars at lunchtime before going to club training in the evening.

What has been the best moment in your career so far?

The bronze medal at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro with the Danas.

What is important to you in your diet?

As a competitive athlete, nutrition is an important basis for staying injury-free and completing every training session with full energy. This means it is important to me that my diet is nutritious and provides me with the energy I need. On the other hand, I love sweets and varied food. I don't want to give it up 100%. A balance of nutrient-rich “healthy” foods and the foods (e.g. chocolate or rubber stuff) that I just need for my head from time to time is very important to me.

What do you usually do in your free time?

Definitely with my studies or my training from April.
I also really enjoy going out for coffee with my friends, my sister or my boyfriend and I really enjoy talking about sports in my free time.

How has Corona affected your everyday life as a competitive athlete?

I've definitely spent a lot of time focusing on nutrition and regeneration. I started practicing yoga regularly, cooking a lot and baking a lot. I particularly enjoyed baking with “healthy” alternatives and natural sweeteners.
I've been home a lot more than I normally am. That was good for me, especially at the beginning. However, at some point it became boring and I quickly longed for our exciting everyday travel routine.

“You can recognize me from afar…?”

Definitely my organ (according to...). And my laughter.

“If I wasn’t an athlete, I would be…?”

Good question. I think I was born a hockey player. Maybe otherwise I would have ended up on television to annoy the audience with my sayings.
