Fernando Pimenta, Portuguese canoeist, became the most decorated Portuguese athlete ever in sport. The athlete recently celebrated another birthday, with "the menu" being four training sessions to mark the date.
The canoeist is currently halfway through the Olympic cycle that will culminate at the Los Angeles 2028 Games. In this context, Pimenta refuses to set high goals or targets for the future, preferring to maintain a moderate approach.
However, the athlete admits that he enters all competitions with the aim of finishing on the podium. This competitive mindset has been a constant throughout his career, which has already allowed him to accumulate an impressive history of medals.
The interview comes at a time of reflection on his career, with the champion preparing the next phase of his sporting trajectory without setting concrete objectives for 2028.
