Océane Michelon

-Your age: 22 years old (04/03/2002)

- Your club / team: I am from the Bauges Ski Nordique club and I compete at national and international level.

- Your sporting background: I have been practicing cross-country skiing since childhood and biathlon since the age of 11. Licensed to the Bauges Ski Nordique club since 2011, I have been competing on various local, national and, in recent years, international circuits for 12 years now...

For my last two years of high school, I managed to join the Pôle Espoir de Ski Nordique in La Motte-Servolex where I was able to combine my schooling with my sports project and obtain my Scientific baccalaureate in June 2019.

For three years, I was part of the biathlon team of the Savoie Regional Ski Committee (joined in 2017) where I was able to develop, progress and subsequently join the highest Junior level of Biathlon in May 2021. I am now competing on the national and international circuit.

- Your favorite playground: the snowy slopes of my resort.

- Your best memory: my best memory is my participation in the Championships of Soldier Hollow Junior World Championships in the United States. Discovering a new continent and an Olympic track with a great team of my friends, as well as winning my two medals (individual and women's relay) make this trip my best memory. It was a bit like the American dream in our own way!

- Your ambitions: My ambitions for the near future are, for this season, to be selected for the IBU Cup circuit and to make as many starts as possible throughout the season. I want to learn and progress on this circuit (why not make a small place for myself there). Eventually, I would like to join the French Elite team, to compete on the World Cup circuit and participate in the Olympic Games.

"With the evolution of practice and the training loads that we impose on our bodies during preparation, it is important to meet our needs effectively, particularly in terms of hydration and nutrition during and after exercise. I wanted to do this with quality local products that I knew were good for my body. Authentic Nutrition is a product studied and designed by a dietician who is particularly familiar with the Nordic skiing and high-level skiing environment as well as the fundamental needs of the body. The products totally meet my expectations, I have complete confidence in the team that designs them, that's why I chose Authentic Nutrition."
