If it was up to me, I would love to race every weekend throughout the whole season. But I&#8217;m a professional triathlete and I have to use most of my time for training, plus my coach has a pretty good sense of which races are best for my training and which races I\u2019m better leaving out. I&#8217;m also pretty sure that in the coming years, I will race less and less per season because it&#8217;s becoming more important to be in my best shape on day X. So right now, I\u2019m not yet concentrating on races such as the 70.3 Worlds but moreover making myself a name on the European circuit.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5340\" src=\"http:\/\/www.challenge-family.com\/challenge-family\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/75\/2024\/05\/save_20190915_210119-300x200-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Well, this season I will have a total of 8 half distances, 3 olympic distances and 2 sprint distances. Apart from the sprint distances, which were German Bundesliga races with drafting allowed, there were just 3 races where I didn\u2019t make the podium: 11<sup>th<\/sup> at The Championship in Samorin, 4<sup>th<\/sup> at Challenge Prague and 4<sup>th<\/sup> at the Allg\u00e4u Triathlon, where I had a puncture which definitely cost me the podium. I took the win in all three olympic distances and had three podium spots in the other half distances: 3<sup>rd<\/sup> Challenge Riccione, 2<sup>nd<\/sup> Challenge Kaiserwinkl-Walchsee, 2<sup>nd<\/sup> Ironman 70.3 Zell am See and two more half distances are still to come: Ironman 70.3 Lanzarote on 5<sup>th<\/sup> October and Challenge Peguera-Mallorca on 19<sup>th<\/sup> October.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5341\" src=\"http:\/\/www.challenge-family.com\/challenge-family\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/75\/2024\/05\/save_20190915_210056-300x200-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The race in Lanzarote was a pretty spontanous decision because I missed the win and the qualification for the 2020 70.3 Worlds in New Zealand by just 50 seconds in Zell am See and the World Championship will definitely be my main goal for the 2020 season. It would be great to nail down the qualification this year already, so I can concentrate the first half of next year on Challenge Family races, especially with a peak on The Championship, and wouldn&#8217;t want to be pressured with the 70.3 Worlds qualification. My shape is still surprisingly good after so many races and I&#8217;m pretty excited about what&#8217;s in it for me in Lanzarote.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5342\" src=\"http:\/\/www.challenge-family.com\/challenge-family\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/75\/2024\/05\/img_20190915_182311_914-300x200-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In addition, I&#8217;m still missing one main goal for the season: My first Pro win in a Challenge Family or IM race after 6 podium finishes in the last two years. So besides Lanzarote, my main goal for Challenge Peguera-Mallorca won&#8217;t just be a podium finish. I would love to finish this awesome season on the top spot, even though it will be quite tough with a very strong field.<\/p>\n<p>Well, this was a short summary of my season and I&#8217;ll keep you up to date on how my career as a Pro athlete continues.
