Challenge Vieux Boucau
11. 10. 2025
Did not start (illness)
Challenge Vieux Boucau was meant to be my first start in the PRO category. The whole end of the 2025 season was built around it – lining up next to the world's best triathletes on a fast, flat course in France that suits my strengths on the bike and on the run.
The day before the race came a fever and a positive covid test. Pulling out was one of the hardest calls of my career – the training was done, I was ready for race day, and in the end I could only watch. But health had to come first.
My professional debut was pushed back to IRONMAN 70.3 Emilia-Romagna 2026. Sometimes not making it to the start line is part of the journey too.
