Why triathlon?
I love cardio! I hate lifting weights! Still, I wanted to do something for my upper body and started swimming. Triathlon had always fascinated me as a sport, and so the triathlon bug got me.
How did you find your way to the Triamt?
I heard about the club through Hugo's wife Jeannette and spontaneously joined a Triamt group ride in 2018. Clearly I enjoyed it a lot!
What do you like about the Triamt?
The Triamt spirit! A good mix of team spirit and professionalism, but without the grim determination
