Leif Zimmermann Head Quotations

I am recovering from a head cold, which affected my hydration level. And hydration has a big effect on hemoglobin levels.

We have a pretty good passport on my blood levels and I'm routinely around 17 (maximum level) as I've spent almost my entire life living and training at altitude. I also have had a head cold for the past week and that definitely affected my hydration, along with the altitude. Hopefully this won't affect any of my plans at the Olympics.
