Last Sunday the European military champions were crowned in Wiesbaden. They fought for qualifying places for the Ironman Hawaii in October. My boys were rubbish and Leon (m) became European military champion and Oliver (left) won the runner-up title. Both bought the Hawaii Ticket. All the more astonishing because Leon still had the long distance (Ostseeman a week before) in his bones. 8 of my athletes have now qualified for the race on the Pacific Island. I think I can be proud of that as a coach.
Now of course the trainer has to follow suit himself and also have a good race for the season 😉
