logo_coach_sportovia_black_bgd_600

Some time ago we asked you about your sports goals for the coming season. We offered free, 3-month access to our experienced coaches for those of you sharing the most interesting and inspiring sports goals. It was a great honor and fun to go through all of your stories but it was extremely hard to choose those special stories. Well, sometimes you just have to take hard decisions, right?

All our winners are really motivated and passionate. Some have been into sports for a long time now and having a personal coach will definitely push them to a higher level. The others have ambitious goals but need someone who will guide them with safe training and mentoring.

Appreciating your efforts, we have sent all the participants 3 coupons for free access to our dietary module (each is valid for 1 month). We hope to help you at least with hundreds of healthy and tasty recipes crafted to your activities.

Remember, that you can help yourself in reaching your goals by cooperating with a personal coach who can prepare the right training plan for you. The right coaches are waiting for you on Sportovia. It’s your joice now to start working with them.

Here are the coaches who supported us in our contest. We are really grateful and proud to have pros like them ready to work with Sportovia tools:

Triathlon is an important and central aspect of my life since I am 15 years old. In 1996 at the Spiezathlon I won directly my very first Triathlon and became only a year later a member of the Swiss National Team. Since then Triathlon is not only a sport, but a life school and philosophy which I follow with great passion. In the following years I had many great moments, like winning the multiple times the national title and winning several international races. In 2008 I retired from professional sport after graduating from University, only to discover 4 years later that I have still got this sport virus in me. Now I am again in search of my personal boundaries, but this time in the Xterra/Cross Triathlon competitions.”
