Here’s a translation of Mai Mihara’s comments made the “UNIVAS AWARDS 2023-24” awards ceremony held by the University Sports Association and posted on Nikkansports.
As a presenter, she greeted the students at the venue, saying, “It’s because of my teachers, my family, my friends, and the people who always support me that I am where I am today and was able to overcome major obstacles.”
This season, she suffered a stress fracture in her right ankle in September and missed a lot of competitions, “There were some tough and frustrating times but the condition of my injury is getting significantly better.”
She is eager for a complete comeback next season, “I want to level up from the previous season (22-23 season), with the disappointment of last season in mind, and steadily work on what I can do now.”
Looking forward to the 2026 Milan-Cortina D’ampezzo Olympics, next season she said, “In terms of aiming for the Olympics, this will be my third time after PyeongChang and Beijing. I want to take advantage of the regrets and ‘what I should have done’ from the past two attempts to this time.” With a determined expression, she looked ahead to the new season.
