Hello everybody,
at the weekend I have one for my buddy Steffen (picture of him in Hawaii above) "Motivation call" started on the tri-mag page !! Steffen starts this weekend at Ironman Australia as a professional and I have one for you big request!
Like all of us, Steffen alias "Captain Chaos" has a long-cherished dream. Anyone who is passionate about our great sport will understand that immediately. Just as we all wanted to be a firefighter or an astronaut when we were children, so is Steffen this weekend on April 5th. at Ironman Australia in the professional category at the start. With a little luck he will qualify as a pro for Hawaii. MY STEFFEN !!
We have been training together in the last few months and, in good and bad hunger rest times, brotherly shared our last chocolate block.What could be more intimate moments between men? Understandable that I have been cheering for weeks and now look forward to its start very excitedly.
However, when I look at the start list, I'm starting to get scared, there are quite a few good people at the start. Little Steffen alone among snarling lions !!
Nevertheless, he doesn't need to hide, his best time on the long distance is 8:48. His strongest discipline is running, which luckily is only at the end.
Nonetheless, due to the other registered competitors, he is getting more and more nervous and now doubts his possibilities.
We can not permit that!
Steffen is one of us !!! No professional who sleeps 12 hours every day, provides all equipment, flies south in winter and is carted for a massage every evening. No, Steffen works all night in the bar to be able to afford his next replacement tubes. Equipped with garbage bags around his legs, against the rain and snow, he rode his bike units all winter long. Shortly before he left, his bike was stolen and he trained with his girlfriend's bike, which was much too small. When I go with him I take an extra bar with me because I know that Steffen only takes a carrot and a crust of bread. He then eagerly eats all of my “expensive” energy bars.
pressed enough on the lacrimal gland ... 😉
You have to give me a huge one Oblige. Regardless of whether you know Steffen or not, write to him and build him up! I wish him all the best and good luck. Send him nude pictures (please only if you are female 😉, no matter what, write everything that makes him hot for his race!
This is not a chain mail in which a little three-legged boy from Bangladesh will go blind immediately if you do not forward his mail to 5,000 friends within 5 seconds. No, you can really make a difference here! Imagine hundreds of people out of the blue sending you congratulations and motivational lines before the biggest race of your life. I think I would burst into tears with joy.
Build me up my Steffen! Regardless of whether you are doing your first triathlon this season or have been jack of all trades (or distances) for many years. Passion is what connects us all.
You would make me very happy with that.
His email address is: SteffenAlex@gmx.de
As I said, his race is on Sunday, April 5th. and I think he has to end up at least 8-9 if he wants to have a good chance of qualifying. Feel free to write where you come from, what you're doing and wish him to spank the other's asses !! 🙂
Please do not tell him anything about this appeal, he should be amazed how you all know him from 😉

I thank you!!

PS: if you can still do a handstand at the finish, you still have potential and can run the marathon 10 minutes faster 😉
That's really a great idea! You can write how he reacted to it soon.

Hi cmoon,
yes, I would say he was simply speechless because I haven't received an answer yet 😉
But seriously, I know that he is a very modest man and prefers to stack deep. But this makes him really nervous now, he would probably like to cut me into four for this action 🙁
Many greetings
Michael
