General Interest

General
TRIATHLON
He competed in the 2019 Ironman in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. "The training was very exciting. I had to deal more intensively with two new sports [swimming and running], but also had to train so sensibly that I could then transform myself back into a trained cyclist. I haven't really swum since I was at school. I just wanted to experience what it felt like to push yourself to your physical limit and push them ever further."
