Olympic hope 2028: Sophie Alisch changes from boxing to cycling!

Mallorca, Spanien - Sophie Alisch, the talented 23-year-old athlete, has announced her change from boxing to racing cycling. This step comes after a successful career in boxing, where she remained undefeated in ten professional fights. Alisch, who has been part of the German Olympic team for 16 years, strives to participate in the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles. The switch to racing cycling was motivated by various factors, including an inadequate number of fights in women's boxes and lack of funding in this discipline.

alisch made the decision because she no longer offered enough perspectives to fight her in our Olympic training. Her passion for cycling also plays a crucial role because she is already racing privately. A positive trend in cycling is the increasing number of women's teams, which gives Alisch hope that this is the right step for your sporting career.

new challenges in racing

In order to be successful in racing cycling, a physical change is necessary. Alisch has to switch from strength to endurance training and adapt their diet. She plans to catch up in cycling in the next 12 to 16 months. Despite her lack of racing experience, she has already planned publicly this year to establish herself in the new discipline as soon as possible. Alisch receives support from the bicycle manufacturer Canyon, and she is currently training under the experienced coach José Antonio Bolívar in Mallorca.

Alisch has dissolved her contract with the US promotional company Wassermann in order to fully concentrate on her new career. She sees racing cycling greater attention compared to boxing, which further increases its motivation. Your future goals include participation and victories in prestigious races such as the Giro d’Italia and the Tour de France Femmes.

Olympia 2028 in view

alisch is not the only athlete who is focused on the 2028 Olympics. Noemi Rüegg, a 24-year-old Swiss cyclist, also has big plans. Rüegg, who focused on in 2024, wants to prepare intensively for the upcoming games. After her impressive 7th place in the Olympic street race in Paris in Paris, she is now a strong hopeful for Los Angeles 2028. She is currently restricted due to a broken collarbone, but is planning a return to Tour de Suisse in mid-June.

Both athletes, Alisch and Rüegg, embody the upward trend in women's cycling, which has increasingly established itself in recent years about the headlines of sports reporting. While Alisch takes her new way in racing, Rüegg remains optimistic that she has the time to prepare for the Olympic Games.

alisch and Rüegg show how diverse and dynamic women cycling is. The increasing success of these athletes will certainly help promote interest and support for women in these sports.
