I turned my passion into a career – and the passion never faded
With a bachelor's and a master's in sports science and more than 20 years of racing, I bring both deep expertise and real-world experience.
These days, sports are part of every area of my life – as a coach, in my free time, and as a PE teacher at a vocational school.
Curious how that passion grew? Keep scrolling to find out.

02Machen ist wie wollen, nur krasser
Doing is like wanting – only more intense.
My goals in sports have changed over the years. Today it's all about adventure, pushing my limits, and the emotions that come with it!
I went from road running, mountain bike racing, and duathlon to triathlon, Gigathlon, and trail running. These days I do a bit of everything – on the trails, on my mountain bike, or on my gravel bike. Where the clock used to matter, now it's all about the experience.
Here's a selection of my biggest adventures, from my first Inferno in 2006 to today, plus the film project I'm working on right now.
«Die Welt ist voller Abenteuer, du musst nur den Mut haben, sie zu erleben.»
The world is full of adventure – you just need the courage to live it.

Current project
Chasing the Flow – One Team Across the Pyrenees
Since the 2022 X-Pyr, I've been part of Team SUI 1, led by paraglider pilot Chrigel Maurer. That grew into a film project I'm managing: the same moments, told from the air and from the ground at the same time.
The pilot film from the 2026 X-Pyr covers 530 km (330 miles) on foot and by paraglider across the Pyrenees. Directed by Marcial Sommer.
- Premiere
- November 18, 2026, Aula Freies Gymnasium, Bern, Switzerland
