Trailblazer 2024:

Although I was a soccer goalie my entire teenage and adult years, I was always a reasonable runner and so in late ’21, after doing a few shorter triathlons and 10k races, I decided to take it more seriously.

And so in early 2022 I finally ran my first trail marathon at La Corsa della Bora in Trieste. Since then I have run several trail marathons and my first 100k at Laufhaus Backyard Ultra in July of the same year. In 2023 I stepped it up a notch and finished my first Ironman in June ’23 in Austria, followed by my probably biggest achievement to date by running the Ultra Trail Cape Town 100k in November of the same year.

I somehow found Tailwind and have been using it as my main source of liquid carbs since the beginning because it just works!

I am a tech entrepreneur and occasionally coach athletes (including my mom ;)). Although I’ve lived in Berlin for the past 10 years, you’ll often find me closer to the mountains now.
