Athlete Comments & Reviews
“I meet great people playing sport!”
Sport’s everything, I need it for my wellbeing, it helps me push myself, it keeps me fit and you meet great people as well.
“The support and the big crowd are incredible”
The crowd is awesome. There were a lot of friends and family, it was a really nice atmosphere and I have noticed that across the board people are just so supportive.
“I compete to be healthy, inspired by the older athletes”
“The first year I competed in the Swiss Masters Athletics, the guys that were 60 – 65 – 70 years old, they were my inspiration. I switched my mind to say: I still compete but I want to be healthy the rest of my life. They are the models.”
