Interview with Virginia Perez Mesonero

3 words that define you as an athlete?

Perseverant, passionate and patient.

3 values that define you as a person?

Meticulous, perfectionist and detail-oriented.

Why do you feel you belong to the Cimalp family?

I'm grateful to be part of this project and, above all, to share the same values of respect for nature and the environment.

Your best and worst memory in the mountains — and why?

"The moments when I'm alone, surrounded by the mountains. Injuries, even though they're part of this sport. I've learned to be patient and to draw lessons from the whole process."

What do the mountains inspire in you?

Tranquillity and inspiration

What is your relationship with the environment and ecology?

I'm vegetarian, and climate change and environmental preservation are close to my heart. I live in an isolated village in the Pyrenees, so preserving our environment is a priority for me.

Another great passion / talent beyond sport?

Nutrition and languages.
