Mao Nakamura Combines University and Comp Training

Mao Nakamura won the 2017 Asian Youth Championships in Bouldering and Combined and is totally mad about climbing.

Even though she has to go to university five days a week, she uses every free minute to practice.

The Japanese climber also has an obvious long-term goal: taking part at the Olympic Games 2020 in her home country.
